About Transparent Summer Residential Space
Transparent Summer is a residential interior design for a 90 square meter apartment in Taipei. A central cube, inspired by an ice cube, stands in the middle of the plan and links the living room with the dining area. The dining table is placed at the center, so the living area feels larger. Iron pieces and open shelves form the walk-in closet, and glass doors visually extend the bedroom. Materials include wooden tiles, plated metal and glass. The living room has no ceiling; a beam carries the lighting and hides the air conditioning and power pipes.
