Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The main concept of the house is lights and shadows. The public areas such as the living room, study and dining room are connected to each other and without any partition so as to achieve a clear and bright ambience. The writing desk covered with the L shaped sofa between the living room and the study has distinguished the two areas in a metaphorical way. The sofa faces the TV wall and the dining room so that it has not only retained the function of the areas but also made the areas closer. In order to manifest the modest ambience of the house, used white, grey, wood and stone as the key vision.
- Inspiration
- The design team has brought the splendid view into the room, and also used an accurate method to connect different regions so as to outline a dynamic modern art piece. Natural lights and shadows are advantages that an urban residence needs so that the designer has broadened the visual effects of the public area by special methods such as the establishment of the french casements and the combination of different materials.
- Research
- The design concept of the case is the scenery and sunlight. Under the premise of having large window scenery, the designer hopes that the public domain can be presented in a transparent and natural way. Instead of covering the field with a hard wall, it conceptually distinguishes each other's functions. Moreover, the living room, study, and kitchen has been maintained with an open vision. Also, the dissimilar materials between the fields join and echo each other such as the TV wall reflects the display cabinets, and the sofa faces the living room and kitchen.
- Challenge
- The inherent configuration of the building has become a construction problem when designing. Considering the beam-columns in the bedroom are way too low which makes people feel a sense of oppression. After communicating with the clients, the designer has planned the ceiling in an inclined shape so as to hide the beam-columns and also embedded striplights into it. Whats more, straight lines are used to raise the visual effects, removing the pressure of the beams and pillars so that the overall space doesnt fall into monotonous cliches.
- Realization and Technology
- The designer has built the TV wall with stone, metal and wood materials so as to establish a flourish feeling. Furthermore, the color of the base is starry galaxy grey which brings out an atmosphere of elegance, and it is supplemented with titanium plated metal which owns the characteristic of reflectivity and transparency. Last, in order to avoid the cold-bloodedness that the stone material and iron parts brought, the designer has emptied into a warm emotion with wooden cabinets.
- Operation and Interaction
- The sunlight which has reflected between the stone and metal in the public domain with the natural and bright characters has become a gentle andante after falling into the private domain. The overall tonality of the main bedroom is wooden materials such as the wall behind the bed which has trimmed the edges so as to build a leisure style. Moreover, the wooden cabinets, the dark color stone material and the textiles wall coverings have built the room a comfortable space.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project finished in June 2020 in Taiwan.
- Specifications
- The designer has planned the display wall in the study in an accurate way such as the perfect proportion which fits the grain texture of the materials and the best use of wood materials, finest deck ornaments and black spray paints which has brought out delightful visual effects. In addition, the hollow cabinets are designed with a staggered method of virtuality and reality. In addition to the displaying items, the back panel is coated with metal paint to highlight the visual point, and it also connects and echoes the mood of the field with the TV wall.
