Notably, a traditional ancestral altar is integrated into the minimalist architectural language, demonstrating that traditional rituals can be incorporated into modern design without visual compromise.
Dimensions & Packaging: The total indoor area of this project is 85.8 square meters. The spatial layout comprises a multifunctional living room integrated with a workspace, one bathroom, a master bedroom, a walk-in closet, a secondary bedroom, an independent kitchen, and a work balcony.

Production Technology: Large beams and columns are softened using curved architectural forms and mineral coatings. A technical feature involves curved stainless steel strips embedded in the floor for ambient illumination. Furthermore, a smart lighting system adjusts color temperatures to suit the specific demands of this multifunctional space.
Design Challenge: The research focused on the psychological and functional intersection of work, life, and traditional practice within a confined footprint. Methodology included spatial flow analysis and material tactile studies. We investigated how natural textures and layered lighting affect occupants' stress levels and productivity. The insight revealed that concealing functional complexity behind minimalist architectural forms successfully fosters both professional focus and personal calm.
Research: The research focused on the psychological and functional intersection of work, life, and traditional practice within a confined footprint. Methodology included spatial flow analysis and material tactile studies. We investigated how natural textures stone, wood veneer and layered lighting affect occupants' stress levels and productivity. The insight revealed that concealing functional complexity behind minimalist monoline architecture successfully fosters both professional focus and personal calm.
Inspiration: The design focuses on the use of authentic textures and layered lighting to create a quiet environment. The intent was to develop a space that balances structural forms with neutral tones and natural finishes, fostering a sense of order and calm through the rhythmic interplay of light and material.
Project Duration: The project started in June 2025 in New Taipei City, Taiwan, and was successfully completed in January 2026.
Operation Flow: The space operates on a dual-axis of professional and personal life. The central kitchen island transforms fluidly from a casual dining surface into a professional material-selection workstation for client meetings. The traditional altar is seamlessly integrated into the minimalist architecture, allowing daily personal rituals to occur naturally without disrupting the modern aesthetic flow. Lighting adapts to these shifts, transitioning from bright task lighting to soft ambient glows.
