About Gentleness Casa Residencial

El projecte és una casa residencial de 105 metres quadrats a Taipei. El concepte d'aquest projecte és una abraçada, amb la qual l'equip de disseny vol transmetre una sensació d'acolliment a la llar. Per tant, s'apliquen colors de baixa saturació per crear un aspecte tranquil i s'utilitza parcialment acer inoxidable xapat amb titani per embellir l'espai. El disseny amb forma arquejada no només redueix l'estrès visual sinó que també augmenta la seguretat dels membres de la família. Finalment, l'espai global està dissenyat amb tonalitats clares perquè els membres de la família puguin sentir l'atmosfera càlida i elegant.
