These modern Chinese minimalist home designs have a unique fashion style. A unique modern staircase occupies an open-plan living area that rises to the second floor like a pile of sliding volumes, with storage rooms tucked inside the base. Unusual sofas dot the minimalist living area, while chic home work areas complement the custom desk design. There is even a children's bedroom with a comical novelty bed and frescoes for extraordinary fun. In our family travel collection we will find open and interesting layout concepts that create clear partitions, spacious rooms, stylish custom storage units, and special bathrooms with split-level floors.
Our first modern Chinese minimalist interior is a warm white space with large windows. Storage units are arranged on the walls, and on the doors are doors inspired by Shoji screens — because while Shoji is considered a Japanese home feature, they were born from folding screens in China.

Behind the wooden headboard wall, a dresser is pulled to a floating dresser. A large round mirror is illuminated at its edges, making it stand out against the wood grain.
Illuminated bathroom mirrors are set above a double sink dresser, illuminating the neat alcove. The shallow alcove creates a harmonious balance with the accompanying bathroom storage unit.
