Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The long and narrow floor plan, of the residential interior design, is symmetrically divided, on the basis of central space, into areas. There are 13 areas, in this 298 square-meter house, that encompass the public space, dining room, kitchen, and master and second bedroom. For the house owner loving music, the piano is decorated in the central public space.
- Inspiration
- Advocating the concepts of clean, transparency and magnificence, the house decoration incorporating the contemporary and Bali styles shows to the world a vital, relaxing and modern aesthetic house. The uniqueness of this house decoration is the foyer enclosed by the clear grey glass brilliantly sustains both its independence and the visual transparency, which elegantly joints the public space and expands the visual perception in the given long and narrow layout.
- Research
- The arrangements of sofa and stereoscopic wood walls implicitly signify the space rhythms. The TV wall adorned with the exclusive paints and lines strengthens the sense of sight and creates the square impression. The bar counter, alongside the dining room, spawns the laid-back aura.
- Challenge
