The Design

About Light Corridor in Grayness Wohnraum-Innenarchitektur

Light Corridor in Grayness ist eine Innenraumgestaltung für den Wohnbereich. Die ursprüngliche T-förmige Erschließung war fragmentiert, weshalb ein H-förmiges Layout gewählt wurde. Der Korridor wurde zur Fensterseite verlegt und die Schlafzimmer zurückversetzt, um öffentliche und private Wege voneinander zu trennen. Spiegel und Glas verteilen das Tageslicht entlang des Korridors. Die Schlafzimmereingänge sind gebündelt am Lichtkorridor angeordnet, abseits des Haupteingangs, um mehr Privatsphäre zu gewährleisten. Geschwungene Flächen mildern die einspringenden Ecken und verbinden Wohn- und Essbereich fließend miteinander.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Unique Properties: H shaped layout addresses the fragmented T shaped circulation, corridor is moved to the window side, and the bedroom is set back to distance the public and private circulations. Shifting the hallway externally creates a cohesive area for the living and dining rooms. Bedroom entrances are centralized along the light corridor, away from the main entrance for privacy and a vacation-like ambiance.
An arc-shaped curve is added to extend the spatial depth difference, smoothing concave corners and fostering a seamless connection between spaces while symbolizing territorial boundaries.
Dimensions & Packaging: The enclosed internal corridor is relocated to the window side, utilizing mirrors and glass to extend the sunlight and create a luminous corridor. This corridor distinguishes between public and private areas, maintaining openness while preserving a sense of security. The outer perimeter of the multi-functional corridor forms a thermal insulation layer for the residence, blocking heat and reducing indoor temperature differences for energy efficiency.
Production Technology: The spatial layout is precisely calculated for both vertical and horizontal dimensions.
Vertical: Partition of the study is positioned alongside the beam, preserving the full height of the space.
Horizontal: The H shaped layout includes one circulation on each side. One side combines the dining table, counter and kitchen, the other side incorporates the living room, study, guest room, and master bedroom. A corridor connects the dining and kitchen area to the back of the sofa in the living room.
Design Challenge: This project goes beyond material layering and incorporates the site's sunlight patterns in the facade design. The mirrored ceiling in the illuminated corridor extends and changes the angles of natural sunlight, creating a vibrant kaleidoscope of light and shadow. Inspired by ink painting, the element of water symbolizes the medium that flows throughout the space, akin to light, representing the spirituality of the entire space.
Research: Embracing practicality, it adapts to variations in space depth by introducing curved surfaces that modify recessed corners, facilitating smoother connections between different areas.
This design sets out from our observations of urban environments and social cultures, and takes the impacts of climate change on societies and living conditions in consideration. Its goal is to innovate and revamp layout and circulations in line with the residents' tastes and lifestyles.
Inspiration: The existing T shape is transformed into an H-shaped to address the uneven walls and fragmented layout. By adopting H shape, it minimizes the oddly blocking structure of the original design, creating a more spacious place with smooth circulations and versatile spatial utilization.
The central corridor is relocated to the window side, moving it away from the main entrance. This adjustment aims to separate the public and private circulations while integrating the scientific concepts of Feng Shui.
This modification aligns with the traditional wisdom of arranging bright hallways and darker rooms as the principles of the overall layout.
Project Duration: The project started in June 2022 in New Taipei Cityand finished in Oct 2022.
Operation Flow: Flexible and Versatile
By using the glass sliding door to separate the entrance, an independent foyer is created without compromising the smooth circulation to the dining room and the island table in it. The well-defined foyer adds a sense of ceremonial ambiance upon arrival, and the openness of the dining room can be adjusted based on specific needs. The flexible and open design establishes a direct pathway to the kitchen, greatly helpful for household chores.
