About Culture and Elegance Residential Space
Culture and Elegance is a residential interior design for a 200 square metre house completed in 2018 in Taichung, Taiwan. The living room, the reading area and the dining room are connected in an open layout, and the absence of partitions lets natural light reach the interior. Grey mirrors on the walls guide the light further. Pale marble sets the basic tone, while one highlight is placed in each space, such as the curved red chair in the living room. Solid wood shutter blades with adjustable angles control the afternoon sun and reduce energy use.
