Unique Properties

Unlike the previous residential space, which had disorderly variations of cabinets, various materials, and furniture, the most important feature of this makeover is that organized the space utilizing a subtractive approach to make the space consistent as a whole.

Dimensions & Packaging

This space has 120 square meter. As the whole house is U-shaped, the corridor forms a natural channel along the layout, while the rest of the space was scattered in various areas, which easily made the overall space look smaller. Therefore, opened up the public area without dividing it through partitions, and let the natural corridor connect the position of each space, so that each space can be seen visually, increasing the overall visual sense of space.

Production Technology

Because organized the space utilizing a subtractive approach. The superfluous material variations and the thickness of cabinets no longer exist, which greatly frees the eyes from visual chaos. In addition, this porject tried to use wood grain, artistic coating and the natural texture of the marble to decorate this space, without any human-made modeling.

Design Challenge

The room area was specially replaced with a wooden floor to distinguish between public and private areas. For the design of the bed board, considered the Chinese Feng-Shui belief that one should not sleep under a beam and should not have a sharp angle facing the bed. Therefore, the bed board is specially shaped with wrapping wood veneer, avoiding the beams on the head of the bed and ensconcing it with a circular shape. Also utilized the space behind the head of the bed for indirect lighting, extending the overall design to provide a space that is not disturbed by too much light when the owner needs to rest.

Research

Indirect lighting for the overall lighting. The soft lighting can add gentle ambience to the space and give the homeowners a night mode in the evenings. Resident can rest in a relaxed environment after work away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Inspiration

The homeowner has a busy work schedule and would like to has a relaxing space after work. Meanwhile, also expects a refined and high quality life. Often welcomes friends to visit and gather. Therefore, this project utilize the same materials consistently throughout the space to extend the overall sense of space without causing visual fatigue.

Project Duration

Jianguo N. Rd., Zhongshan Dist., Taipei City 104075, Taiwan (R.O.C.)

Operation Flow

For the main TV wall, chose to apply an artistic coating in the same color as the rest of the walls but with a richer texture, so that the whole spatial consistency can be integrated while also defining the visual design of the main TV wall, instead of the usual approach of choosing a sharply contrasting color. THis project chose natural marble for the flooring, and leveraged the natural reflection of marble to add a little height to the originally low ceiling height of the house. For the wooden texture, specially chose a MOKU pattern and dark brown wood veneer, so that the space is more relaxed and resonant for the homeowner.
