About The Meaning of Happiness Residential House
The Meaning of Happiness is a residential interior design for a 100 square meter apartment. The original small three-bedroom layout was replaced by an open plan that connects the study, living and dining areas. The living and dining rooms were reversed to enlarge the kitchen and the living space. A curved U-shaped entryway with a band of lighting guides movement and widens the view. Pale turquoise rattan cabinets, stone tiles with waterfall-like patterns, wood and small metal details complete the interior.

- Unique Properties
- Featuring an “art-filled home,” the designer create the artistic main walls at different end views. The pale turquoise rattan cabinets break free of the usual earth-tone palette, while the stone tiles with waterfall-like patterns bring out a sense of dynamic, rendering a flowing groove. The stone tiles, rattan doors, and wood introduce natural energy, while metal materials dot about the space to add exquisite details, creating an elegant high-end residential look.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Dimensions: 100 square meter
- Tags
- laminate flooring, Italian paint, sheet brick, grille, titanium plating
- Production Technology
- The entryway storage room has multi functions like screening, storing and guiding the moving line. The band of lighting helps define the main moving line, while the nonparallel U-shaped design creates a gradually widening, brightening curved path with an enlarged sense of space.
- Design Challenge
- The original layout separates areas and the various sized doors and windows fragment the space. By reversing the living and dining room and rearranging the furniture, we maximize the usable space and open up visual connections as the open-plan layout lends an unblocked view.
- Research
- Fully communicating with this house resident, so that we can reach their real need. Design should be more humanize for people life.
- Inspiration
- Our design expands the space through an open plan that rearranges the layout and breaks free from the original small-three-bedroom framework. We demonstrate for the apartment units, with few changes and creative use of curves, the cramped feel of the original layout is resolved.
- Project Duration
- The project had finished in 2021.
- Operation Flow
- Breaking the limitation of the long narrow layout, we reverse the living and dining room and rearrange the direction of the living room, thus enlarging the kitchen and living room space. The large vertical surfaces integrate functions and conceal doors, extending the space depth.
