Mid-century modern elements add style to the home of this comfortable book lover, layering a contrasting color over a rich wooden tone. Designed by NDB Design’s Ni Dongbo, a lack of architectural features has been overcome by creative interior treatments of sculpture, wall art and literary treasure. Mid-century modern accent pieces are combined with contemporary components to create an interesting, eclectic style that keeps the eye moving and the mind wandering. Crisp white walls provide a fresh backdrop for the bright, prominent furniture and make a quiet frame for two well-stocked home library walls. The unique home is covered in natural greenery that just combines the interior with abundant outdoor views.

A compactly designed red living room rug immediately puts a warm and welcoming eclectic tone into the walls of modern white space. A sleek sofa design speaks to a mid-century aesthetic with its simple square cushion and saturated color.

The red living room rug and bright sofa make a vibrant contrast with a multitude of abundant green indoor plants. Next to the fireplace, an elegant swivel chair completes the plant life and the mid-century atmosphere with an earthy olive hue.

A glass coffee table reflects natural light from the window.

A comfortable reading chair and matching footstool are pulled up by a custom wooden bookshelf. A small side table is set aside to hold a supply of tea or coffee close at hand.

Glass doors protectively contain a Buddha statue at the heart of the bookshelf. The serene statue instills a message of enlightenment and peace into the home library.

A wooden stool rounds out the library/lounge furniture layout, functioning both as a seat and as an extra side table.

Wood flooring creates a warm finish throughout the living room and home library area, then shifts to a more durable surface under the kitchen and dining room.

In the center of the open plan residential area, a natural wooden envelope transforms a basic concrete support into a beautiful pillar.

A second home library/lounge area is located at the opposite end of the room.

Colorful art brings mid-century modern vibes to the library wall.

A simple floor lamp provides light reading next to the elegant sofa. The little lamp also casts a soft light through the pile of thorns that fill a custom-made bookcase. Hidden storage units are tucked into the wooden frame of the usual bookshelf, and deep drawers line its base.

Hardback volumes are stacked randomly on the floor of the home library, creating a welcoming, inhabited look.

Wooden volumes are stacked to form a random side table next to the wooden sofa.

A decorative bowl and sculptural artwork adorn the modular side table.

Across the room, a round glass dining table is surrounded by a wonderfully eclectic set of wooden dining chairs that span the ages.

A wide skylight rains natural light down on the dining room. Colorful artwork is kept in a bright gallery above a staircase that leads up into the living room. Sculptural artwork adorns the glass dining table and plinth placed near the floor to ceiling window.

After dark, a fabulous dining room hanging light illuminates the dining room. This striking, sculptural piece is the Taraxacum Penda Lumo designed by Achille Castiglioni and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni for FLOS.

The rich wooden tone that is displayed in the collection of various dining chairs shifts to the neighboring kitchen design. The L-shaped installation of flat-fronted cabinets communicates a mid-century modern influenced style.

A modern kitchen island divides the kitchen dining room into two distinct halves, just behind the wooden chairs. A Chashitsu tea room, of a kind, is formed by the window of the kitchen where the floor was deliberately raised. Tatamis fill the floor around a stone ceremonial tea table.

Instead of a neat Tokonoma alcove for the Chashitsu tea room, where flowers and a special scroll would traditionally be displayed, this home has books in a proud place, of course.

One end of the kitchen island counter is cantilevered to form a cozy breakfast bar. The olive green hue of the central island breaks beautifully against the honey-colored wooden grain background.

Rustic wooden bowls pop up against a dull black kitchen back and a matching black counter.

On top of a modern black oven shine copper pans. The fan is hidden in the bottom of the wall units to achieve a completely streamlined result.

The large open plan residential location is located on the second floor of the home. Beneath it, the entrance and modern staircase design are full of bright natural light. As if presenting the theme of this book lover’s apartment, an embedded bookcase is carved into the white stucco wall of the lobby. A high stepped back chair and a unique side table make up a sculpted furniture arrangement for reading under the stairs.

At the foot of the modern staircase, the interesting geometric folding lamp design is an Akari UF4-L8 floor lamp by Isamu Noguchi.
