曾厝垵位于厦门的东南部，这里原本是个临海的村庄，也被称为最文艺的渔村，集原始的自然景观与人文为一体。言海民宿的名字从地理位置谐音而来——沿海，在这里可以直接眺望大海，与海对话。

Tsan-tshù-uannis is located in the southeast of Xiamen. It was originally a village near the sea and also known as the most literary fishing village. It integrates primitive natural scenery and humanities. The name of Yanhai Homestay comes from a homophonic location—the coast, where you can directly look at the sea and talk to the sea.

改造前的言海原本是一间村民的房屋，设计师重新进行了区域划分，在拥有着十二间客房的同时，还有活动草坪、篝火派对区、餐厅以及星空泳池。

Before the renovation, Yanhai was originally a villager’s house. The designer re-division of the area, with twelve rooms at the same time, there are also activities lawn, bonfire party area, restaurant, and starry swimming pool.

▼项目外观，exterior view

设计师让建筑拟化成海岸边的一块礁石，将斜切面的元素延用至空间的每一处细节中。打破建筑传统四方的概念，建筑在拥有功能性的基础上能够与自然相结合，显得独具一格。

The designer transformed the building into a reef on the coast, applying the elements of the oblique section to every detail of the space. Breaking with the traditional square concept of architecture, the building can be integrated with nature on the basis of its functionality, which makes it unique.

▼入口区域，entrance area

一进入空间，转角处的休息区种植着仙人掌等等热带植物，粗犷的陶罐与米色涂料搭配让人不自觉产生了仿若在沙滩上度假的感受。

As soon as you enter the space, the rest area at the corner is planted with cacti and other tropical plants. The rough clay pots and beige paint make people unconsciously feel like vacationing on the beach.
