About Beginning of the Time Hospitality Space

Beginning of the Time is a residential lobby interior completed in October 2020 in Taichung, Taiwan. The space covers 6611.6 square meters. Walls and floors are paved with grey marble whose texture recalls the sky, clouds and mountains, with darker stone patterns inlaid in the middle. Two interlaced slopes of scenic stone form the service counter of the lobby. The main wall behind is made of antique facing stone, and the corridor pillars are clad in ink-sprayed landscape stone. A large amount of natural light is introduced, and the unified colour scheme keeps the space calm.

Production Technology
the main wall behind is made of antique facing stone, the stone grain is like the beginning of the heaven and the earth, blending like a dream; the big slope is overflowing with light, shaping the image of sky light of primitive caves. The corridor pillars of the intermediary are presented with ink-sprayed landscape stone, with misty brilliance in the faintness, and its ritual-like calm and tranquil charm, so that the busy mood slowly calms down.
Design Challenge
Without too much embellishment and color changes, the harmony of the color system is unified, through the introduction of a large amount of natural light, it is clean and tidy, and then play with the light, let the details embellish everything.
Project Duration
The project finished in October 2020 in Taichung, Taiwan
Operation Flow
Every move of light and shadow makes people temporarily leave real life and step into a kaleidoscope-like fantasy world. Layers of dark framed sceneries echo the image, and the image of the mountains is the overall tone of the design; the symmetry and harmony of the space make the sensory experience extremely comfortable.
Research
In the other movie viewing room, with Titus Lucretius Carus’s De Rerum Natura (De Rerum Natura) as the imagination, the senses become sharp in the dark. The distant mountains and clouds. Every move of light and shadow makes people temporarily leave real life and step into a kaleidoscope-like fantasy world.
Inspiration
This design is inspired by the famous quote of writer Haruki Murakami to create a spiritual forest belonging to the community for residents. Pushing open the door, the entrance of the forest reveals the mountain scenery with the wonderful change of stone patterns, and the elegant rhythm runs through the entire space. Without losing the calm atmosphere, it seems to build a fortress of home comfort.
