More About Lure Union Residential Interior Design

Lure Union is a residential interior design for a two-story house of 222 square meters in Taoyuan City. Reunion is the theme of the plan, because most family members live downtown and gather during holidays. The wide rectangular space is divided into sections that are joined by seamless doors set on one wall.

Design Details

Unique Properties
This house has to comprise both enjoyable styles and multi-functional planning, in order to cater for both the elder and young generation of the family. In the meanwhile, to comply with aging society trends, the accessible design has been fulfilled through open-plan layout, wide aisles, avoidance of thresholds...etc, at both floors of the building.
Inspiration
Alienation is a primary concept of modernism; however, being together with families is all people longing for. In this project, most residents of family members live downtown, and will get together during vacation or national holidays. Reunion thus becomes the theme of this two-story residential house master-planning.
Research
In order to cater for all family members' preference, probe into the 'greatest common divisor' among multifarious décor styles. Color plays an important factor to coordinate every section of interior areas.
Challenge
How to mingle multifarious interior styles without discord and haphazard arrangement, and how to comprise both leisure and habitable functions in order to adapt to future 3-generation family members, both are the priority in this project.
Realization and Technology
The annular rings of tree resemble the metaphors of reunion, which also imply profound asian undertones. Thus, variant wood colors are found in most areas. The deep-color wood veneering delineates poise ambiance in open living sections; whereas moderate wood hues carry out relaxing vibes at 'tea room' and home library.
Operation and Interaction
Split a wide rectangular space into cubicles, and integrate every section with seamless doors on the same wall. Glass sliding doors, found in the kitchen front and the library room, bring better day-lighting condition throughout the open-concept living spaces.
Project Duration and Location
Started from November 2019 and finished in May 2020. Taoyuan City.
Specifications
Construction area 222 square meter.
