About Leaves Shadow Residence
Leaves Shadow is a minimalist residential interior located in Zhubei City, Taiwan. The home covers 168 square meters and contains three bedrooms, a living room, a dining room and two bathrooms. Natural light on the site is limited, so the interior was planned around a careful lighting design. Fixture positions, heights and angles were calculated so that furniture, cabinets and plants create a soft display of light and shadow. Materials include timber veneer boards, timber louvre windows and dark-tinted glass. The original layout was kept in order to limit renovation work.

- Project Duration
- The project was finished in October, 2018 in Zhubei City, Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- Due to the presence of the original partition wall and structural columns, there are many odd recesses formed upon entry and throughout, so under the premise of not altering the layout, the design team utilized line and axis to align layout points to minimize renovation cost, as well as creating visual consistency.
- Research
- This project was located without vista and multi-directional natural lighting, so the top design agenda was to create an interior with an inward looking view, while formulating the favored semantics of comfort and relaxation. The overall interior was complemented with visual line calibration and lighting design appearing in various parts of the interior.
- Inspiration
- With limited natural lighting onsite, along with the different user experiences by the client, as well as attention to be paid towards ambiance formed by lighting design, where in domains of different functions, the design team orchestrated a display of light and shadow, and a special visual experience for the client.
