Design Details
- Unique Properties
- No sound disturbed the silence of the dawn; rays of light carelessly sprinkle between the crevices of eaves and wood trusses, reflecting the quaint situation of the hall. Whether stroll amid the green courtyard, natural red-earth cubicle, or tranquil side room, quietly sweep away the hustle and bustle of the city.
- Inspiration
- The design team believe that a good architectural design should start with the "definition" conceptually. The more poetic way is to "inject the soul" into this architecture. Therefore, they hoping to create a deep inner atmosphere for the whole space.
- Research
- The design team pick out natural solid wood, red earth, mineral paint, and ironwork as the main construction materials. The quality of those materials does not look variegated and aged after being weathered through the years, other than sets off natural changing textures.

- Challenge
- The design team are aware that the property owner is a devotee of Buddhism, and draw inspiration from his most beloved Buddhist scripture. They are inspired by the classics, comprehend the wisdom words, and transform the scriptures as the design text of the project. Starting from the Heart Sutra and returning to the Heart Sutra, the soul penetrates the architecture. The spirit of the place is established as well. The atmosphere of the project is full of Buddha-nature without any Buddha statue.
- Realization and Technology
- In terms of tectonics, the design team refine the essence of traditional methods and elements, and use contemporary methods to give new inheritance. In the application of materials, they insist on using materials that come from or are eco-friendly to the land. Shape the home that connects the nature and the universe.
- Operation and Interaction

The audio-visual room in the basement is separated from the study by a penetrating suspended bookshelf.
