About Tranquil Realm Dylunio Mewnol Preswyl

Mae Tranquil Realm yn ddyluniad mewnol preswyl ar gyfer fflat o oddeutu 116 metr sgwâr yn Ninas Taipei. Mae'r cartref yn cynnwys tair ystafell wely, dwy ardal fyw a dwy ystafell ymolchi. Cyfunir palet o arlliwiau tywyll â phren brown dwfn, carreg a gorffeniadau gweadog. Mae'r ardaloedd byw a bwyta wedi'u huno'n un parth cyffredin drwy gynllun cylchrediad diwygiedig. Mae nenfydau crwm ac ymylon wedi'u meddalu yn lleihau ffiniau gofodol gweladwy. Mae sgrin wydr rychiog yn rhannu'r fynedfa gan gadw tryloywder gweledol. Mae'r dyluniad yn cynnig encil tawel rhag sŵn y ddinas.

Unique Properties
To create a cocoon away from the neon, noisy hustle and bustle of the city, the abode features a calm and restrained dark-toned palette. Natural textures, such as deep brown wood, stone, and textured finishes, are employed to echo the homeowner’s pursuit of a refined quality of life. By reconfiguring the traffic flow and functionality, the living and dining areas are connected seamlessly, forming an expansive shared zone. Curved elements are introduced to soften spatial boundaries, lending a sense of visual continuity while fostering emotional connection among family members.
Dimensions & Packaging
The project features an interior area of approximately 116 square meters, accommodating three bedrooms, two living areas, and two bathrooms.

Design Challenge
The bedroom headboard draws inspiration from a skylight. By separating the wall and ceiling and integrating diffused lighting, the design visually extends the ceiling height while reducing any sense of compression. The walk-in closet features dual entrances, creating a smooth and efficient circulation flow thereby enhancing the functionality of the private quarters. The bathroom adopts a light gray palette, contrasting with the darker tones in the public areas and reinforcing a sense of privacy.
Research
The public areas are organized around a circular traffic flow, offering flexible movement routes and enhancing spatial fluidity. A feature wall anchors the living room and creates a statement with a wow factor. Open shelving and an electronic fireplace balance the heaviness of the dark palette. With stone as the backdrop, the dining sideboard with a mini bar can be practical for hosting gatherings or enjoying a casual evening at home.
Inspiration
Rather than presenting bold or ostentatious displays, this abode centers on the concept of “restraint.” Through the sharing and reconfiguration of functions, different spatial zones are woven into a unified narrative. The use of a dark-toned palette, curved lines, and the layers of refined materials creates a living environment that soothes the senses and provides a place for the mind to unwind.
Project Duration
The project is finished in October 2025 in Taipei City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow
The entryway is subtly divided by a fluted glass screen, serving as a gentle spatial buffer to achieve a good feng shui while preserving visual transparency. The public areas adopt a minimalist approach, with the main TV wall positioned at the center of the space, defining zones while offering easy viewing from all angles. Curved ceilings exude elegance and sophistication. In the living room, a framed ceiling with softened, curved edges defines the space. While in the dining area, a curved light membrane diffuses illumination, allowing light to spread evenly and maintain visual purity. The living room employs textured finishes to convey a sense of warmth, while stone patterns anchor the dining room, lending greater stability and balance to the overall composition.
