About Zen Living Residential Apartment
Zen Living is an apartment interior design based on calm and harmony. Ancestral memorial tablets are placed at the center of the home within an open plan layout, so worship becomes part of the living space. Outdoor scenery is blended with the interior. A multi-purpose area serves as a study, a meditation space and a gym. All partitions and platforms hold hidden storage. Natural materials such as terrazzo, wood grain walls and raw wooden decking create contrast and zoning, with gold metal accents and varied lighting scenes.
