See the black and white interior finishes of this old family house that has a strong gloss and the sense feel of continuity and the difference of atmosphere, The flooring and the line elements such as column are finished with black oil stain, but for the wall and ceiling are finished with white paint. The interior connects to the exterior and become a part of the scenery.
