- Production Technology
- In the living room, the main walls are covered with metals and carved into shapes.
- Design Challenge
- The design to extend the outdoor to the indoor area was a challenge. The team used lights, windows, and stones to bring the scenery of the patio to the living room,
Also, the outdoor area had to be designed to meet the strict law in New Taipei City. - Research
- The laws for outdoor balcony design had to be followed for this project. The large stones and metals that were designed on the walls and floor also required paperwork to be filed in order to bring them to the project site.
- Inspiration
- The project is inspired by the owner's fascination with the future, and features metal designs that structure different areas. Lighting designs are set up in the living room, including one light that can provide 360-degree illumination. Lights are also designed to surround the living and dining areas. Technical products and modern designs are incorporated throughout the project, and the lighting can be adjusted to create a particular atmosphere. Stones are used to connect the living space while also creating distinct areas.
- Project Duration
- This project was finished in June 2022, in New Taipei City.
- Operation Flow
- Located on the 20th floor, this apartment features a beautiful terrace that offers 270 degrees of magnificent city views. By using lighting, indoor spaces are combined, mixed, and extended to the outdoor terrace and its city views. The gray color tone, with different scales, is introduced into every corner, and the contrast of textures such as stainless steel, wood, and marble, is also tuned to be the space's keynote. The horizontal marble step with linear lighting divides but combines the interior and outdoor areas and indicates the character of this apartment space. Together with the vertical blinds, the vertically rotating screen lighting adds a vivid element to the space.
