Abstract

As a place to relax and rest after work, the “family residence” is also an important space for gathering family affection and centripetal force which is full of “Memory” and “Recollection”. Everyone has their ideas about the style and planning of the “family residence”. Looking back at history, designers have had many successful cases in their overall planning and design of their home space, but there are relatively few designs focusing on “monumental”. This article takes a family memorial “Qiyun Residence” as an example. Based on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, and the relationship between “Technology”, “Humanity” and “Cultural Creativity”, it analyzes the origin and main idea of “Qiyun Residence”. The results show that “Qiyun Residence” presents a style that can be said “Simplicity without simple, and Simple without boring.” It’s connecting the owner’s precious “Memory” and “Recollection”, and this design method can also inspire similar designs.
