Regarding Attitude Toward Life Residential Space
Attitude Toward Life is a residential interior design created inside a house that is fifteen years old. The cabinets follow the concept of a cross. Partitions between the living room, the dining area and the study room were rearranged to form an open and transparent view. Simple colors and natural materials are used. Wood, cement surfaces and an irregular patchwork of hexagon tiles with wood flooring shape the character of the rooms. The ceiling was left plain, and the pipes remain exposed and ordered for easy repair. Continuous windows bring natural light into the shared areas.
About Tsu Chao Lin
My design always inspired from Minimalism, reading, movies, and traveling and replace arranged decorations with numerous uses of graphic tension and geometrical proportions. We can show captivating charm of easily connected reflected items even by setting a lamp or a handful of green color, or by setting a bed or a view of a wall. We tend to hide emotions in the layers of the materials, in the changes of light and shadow, and in the transitions of dimensionality.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The cabinets design with the concept of a cross. Restructure and rearrange. By using the partitions between the living room, dining area, and the study room, this design was able to create a spacious and transparent view with the usage of simple colors and materials. This also enables the space to plays a role as a continuously hearty interactive area as well.
- Inspiration
- This design implies both the devout faith towards religious and also the ideal plan for home of the tenants. By using the partitions between the living room, dining area, and the study room, this design was able to create a spacious and transparent view with the usage of simple colors and materials. This also enables the space to plays a role as a continuously hearty interactive area as well.
- Research
- The whole area is planned and designed with natural materials. While renovating this 15 years old house, the designer needs to consider about rerouting the heat and cold pipelines, the restrictions of the height and structure, hence, there is no design made on the ceiling; On the other hand, exposed pipes were set on the ceiling for the convenience during reparations, and the pipes are needed to be rearrange and reroute in an ordered way. The common spaces (living room, study room) could draw in a large amount of natural lights with the continuous window effect, resulting in a room full of lights and shadows.
- Challenge
- The rearrangement of the pipelines. Unlike new houses which have the water inlet valve indoors, old houses tents to have water entry in outdoors. to reroute the pipelines, need to find out the first water entry point in the indoor, but this could be very difficult as the markings on the original building plan might be unclear, hence these has to be found via opening up and searching in the pipelines physically.
- Realization and Technology
- The wood gives an image of not but decorations, pure faith; the natural lines and saturation formed by the cement shows a sense of nature and free of burden for an ideal house; the irregular patchwork of the hexagon tiles and the wood flooring shows the joy and pleasure of being free and easy in life.
- Operation and Interaction
- The main consideration in this design is the ratio of the importance of each role that different elements play in the whole design. From a modest image thinking point of view, the colors, ratio, usage of materials, every element is given its own role and they give off a unique spark when they are combined, and these can be seen in the details, which forms a sustainable spirit in the design.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in January 2018 and finished in September 2018 in Taiwan.
- Specifications
- The space is approximately 96 square feet.
- Keywords
- concept of a cross, religious, harmony of the function, sliding door
