The Design

About Ink Highlight Diseño de Interiores Residenciales

Ink Highlight es un diseño de interiores residencial para una vivienda urbana de 150 metros cuadrados en Taiwán. La distribución prioriza la función y no establece ningún límite entre el comedor y la sala de estar, de modo que los miembros de la familia pueden reunirse con facilidad en una amplia zona común. Un gran módulo funciona a la vez como mesa de comedor, isla central y barra. Su superficie emplea azulejos finos italianos con vetas de tinta, un motivo que se prolonga en el muro de televisión de piedra beige y en los papeles pintados de patrones naturales. Las vigas y columnas de las esquinas se reaprovechan como armarios y espacios de almacenaje.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: For this standard urban modern house, the design concept places an emphasis on optimal space distribution for family interaction and cohesion, allowing family members to gather easily and comfortably. Function is first, and then the aesthetics is carefully considered to balance the spatial needs and visual enjoyment of the owner.
Dimensions & Packaging: 150 square meters
Tags: Ink highlight, Silent White, Residential, Daylight, Ink
Production Technology: The main vision is the "Italian thin tiles" with ink patterns on the dining table panel. The ink patterns are continued with the beige stone TV wall, and the natural pattern wallpapers are used to maintain the overall consistency.
Design Challenge: The original structure has a layout made up of beams and columns at the corners, such as the porch, kitchen entrance, windowsills and bed board area in the rooms. These irregular structures are rearranged to accommodate shoe cabinets in the porch, storage cabinets in the kitchen, a circuit box for the air conditioner, a partition for the walk-in closet, and a bedside cabinet. By repurposing the corner spaces, efficient distribution is achieved and spatial shortcoming is avoided.
Research: The public domain is the soul of the space. No boundary is set between the dining room and the living room in order to give the room a spacious impression while maintaining all the daily living functions. To highlight a visual proportion of weights, the color palette is centered on white and embellished by different greys. Some warmth from wood materials balance the sharpness of the black and grey tones. Materials such as the metal lights and the ceiling rendering belt, are drawn to enliven the modern space.
Inspiration: Through the balcony windows, daylight leaks into the room, its brightness undulating with the passage of day. This daylight adds a smooth white haze to the space, and the dimness of the living room is like light grey ink fading into the air, layering the depth of color harmony.
Project Duration: Construction: 2021.08
Completion: 2021.09,Taiwan
Operation Flow: The design focus of the public domain is a large functional complex serving as a dining table, a center island, and a bar. In terms of visual layout, the entire surface of the large dining table is made of a splash-ink-landscape Italian marble board that is parallel to the corresponding ceiling beams which are covered with black mirrors. The splash-ink-landscape texture extends from the surface to the L-shaped table legs on the side. It elevates the experience of the entire public domain.
