An inclined plane links the porch to the storage room and guides movement into the home. The public area is planned in an open pattern, so daylight reaches the living room, the dining room and the porch. The walls are finished in a milk tea color, with white cabinets and glass doors.

Production Technology: In order to create a porch and storage room in a limited space, from the independent entrance, the inclined storage room, the polygonal dining area wall and the sleeping seat are adopted to guide the smooth flowing line. The ceiling glass cabinet with high capacity is arranged on the left side of TV wall to define the field of the guest and dining room, and form an open living room space.
Design Challenge: The master bedroom bathroom is expected to meet the needs of bathtub and shower. So, how to create an external wash basin and add an internal bathtub while retaining the shower area without moving the cubicle wall and affecting the floor level of such moving line area.
Research: Considering budget planning, the cabinet is mainly made of system board, and part of it is designed with wood. The color of wire board and door piece should be unified, so as to create a harmonious and consistent American style.
Inspiration: Hope to continue the pattern after guest change, and take open and spacious space as a starting point, to create the female owner's favorite American romantic style, and have an independent porch and storage room function.
Project Duration: The project started in June 2022 and finished in October 2022 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The dining room and the living room are connected to each other, forming a transparent and bright public area, which is the core field of family members' gathering, and can maintain visual interaction and emotional cohesion.
