Holiday Home at the Seaside Features Minimalism to Emphasise Ocean Views
Located in the placid enclave of Aranya in Qinhuangdao, China, Holiday Home at the Seaside exemplifies extraordinary humble sophistication. Built by 昊 吴 of ZaoRuì Design in 2023, this loft home enchants with its impeccable fusion of indoor and outdoor spaces. A generous terrace offers breathtaking ocean views, welcoming the splendor of nature into everyday existence.
Upon entering, a wave of tranquility envelops you. The elegant, minimalist décor immediately catches your eye, directing your attention to the large windows. These windows reveal an ever-changing picture of the ocean, a work of art in perpetual motion. The design principle supports the concept of “less is more,” with no superfluous ornamentation to distract attention from the breathtaking view.
Living areas that welcome the outdoors
As you progress through the open-designed living space, sunlight bursts in, illuminating the soothing array of muted hues. A comfortable yellow sofa serves as a centerpiece, inviting leisure time. The connected space features a glossy coffee table and an elegant circular ottoman, ideal for informal gatherings.

The dining area extends seamlessly from the living area. Here, a simple and refined table is suitable for family lunches and dinners. The nearby kitchen features subtle contemporary elements, ensuring practicality and aesthetic appeal.
Bedrooms with sea views
Bedrooms are true havens, created to ensure optimal relaxation and serenity. In one room, a comfortable bed positioned next to a rounded window frames a sweeping sea view. Soft sheets and soft lighting provide a cozy environment for rest and rejuvenation.
Other bedrooms embody the same minimalist philosophy, displaying delicate textures and subdued colors. Each space encourages a connection to the outdoors, presenting private balconies where guests can sip their morning coffee while enjoying the sun’s rays.

Deck chairs invite residents to relax, savoring the rhythmic whisper of the waves and gazing at the stars. The blend of thoughtful design and natural beauty creates a perfect balance, making Vacation House by the Shore a true triumph of modern architecture.
