Discover 100 Home Design Principles by Arthur Gao, now available as an instant digital download in high-quality PDF format. This comprehensive 400-page bilingual guide offers a systematic exploration of home interior design through detailed case studies, plans, and professional insights.

Whether you are a practicing architect, interior designer, or design student, this book provides a structured reference that bridges theoretical concepts with real-world applications. The bilingual presentation in Chinese and English makes it accessible to a wide audience.

Book Overview

In 100 Home Design Principles, editor Arthur Gao organizes residential interior design into five core modules: space design, structural design, interface design, decorative design, and the design of special areas. Each of the 100 principles is illustrated with a featured case study that includes floor plans, directional arrows to indicate viewpoints, and commentary from the original project designers.

The book moves from foundational concepts like spatial conception and ambience creation to detailed topics such as material selection, lighting techniques, and room-specific design. Throughout, the visual documentation helps readers understand the transition from two-dimensional plans to three-dimensional spaces.
