Design Details
- Unique Properties
- In the square room, instead of solid walls, the open layout is used to combine art and humanity, allowing the diffusion of light and shadow under the metallic texture to portray abstract aesthetics.
- Inspiration
- With the undertone luxurious vibe as the spatial axis, combining the properties of materials, and using light beams as the medium to enjoy the collision of materials. The clever connection of all elements strikes a balance of tension between technology and humanity.
- Research
- The low-chroma colors are combined with the contemporary minimalist design. Taking the characteristics of materials into account, the rich layers of space and a unique look are created. The design features strike the perfect balance between the rigidity and softness. Thus, you may enjoy fluid dynamics as well as timeless moments.
- Challenge
- To balance the cold tone of the space, warm wood flooring is used throughout the room and extends upward to the wooden blinds by the windows. Furniture and colorful pillows add flexibility and color to the space.
- Realization and Technology
- Steel brushed veneer, iron parts, titanium plate, natural stone skin, marble, imported tiles, imported fabric wall, glass, super wear-resistant floor
- Operation and Interaction
- After entering the room, you are guided under the lights as if exploring a mysterious path. The path of exploration is not narrowed in any way under the layout. The natural lighting adds brilliance to the dark-colored ground. The main TV wall is divided and assembled with stone blocks, and the lower part is clasped with mirror to create a sense of extension of the view. The rough texture of the stone injects a rustic and mellow atmosphere into the space. In the bar area, the titanium-plated steel plate is the canopy, which is connected to the ink splatter pattern center island under the lights. The chandelier lighting looks like the meteor showers in the night sky.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project finished in September 2020 in Hsinchu City, Taiwan.
- Specifications
- The interior design area is about 139 square meters. The layout consists of entrance, living room, dining room, changing room and 1 bedroom and 2 bathrooms.
