About Bi Wabisabi Micro Residence
Bi Wabisabi is a micro residence in Taipei, Taiwan, with a floor area of 26 square meters. The interior design is based on the travel memories of the owners in Japan. A nostalgic mood is created through a careful division of the small space. The narrow, vertical height of the home is used as an advantage, and a bookshelf reaches from the floor to the ceiling. The bookshelf recalls a bookstore in Japan that the owners admire. Completed in 2019, Bi Wabisabi allows the owners to revisit treasured memories in daily life.
