About Garden Within Dearadh Intí Cónaithe

Is dearadh intí é Garden Within do theach cónaithe de thart ar 512 méadar cearnach i Taipei, sa Téaváin. Leanann an leagan amach geoiméadracht bhíseach an túir, agus síneann foirmeacha cuartha sa halla fáiltithe, sna dorchlaí agus sna príomhspásanna maireachtála na línte radhairc i dtreo lánléargais ar an léibheann. Tá troscán inaistrithe agus cuntar beáir dealbhóireachta sa halla isteach, ionas gur féidir leis feidhmiú mar limistéar fáiltithe le haghaidh ócáidí. Tá an seomra bia suite i dtoirt shorcóireach le ceithre dhoras uathoibrithe áirseacha i marmar Silver Fox a fhrámaíonn radhairc ar an ngairdín. Is féidir an seomra tae a athrú ina staidéar nó ina sheomra fáiltithe.

Production Technology: The interior unfolds from the tower elegant spiral geometry and cascading gardens, crafting a symphony of flowing lines and luminous depth. The foyer, corridors, and principal living spaces echo sculptural curvature, extending sight lines toward a panoramic terrace where light and landscape intertwine. Fluid contours define each moment, balancing grace and stillness, while crafted materials and soft radiance elevate daily movement into an artful journey through living space.
Design Challenge: This project transcends conventional luxury frameworks, weaving Eastern philosophy and vertical garden principles into living domains, cultivating an experience where dwelling becomes spiritual garden. Circulation flows with flexibility, privacy and sociality interweave, transforming daily life into artistic expression.
Research: The design shapes life around the refined rhythm of its inhabitants, where public and private realms hold distinct roles yet flow in harmony. The entrance becomes both reception and threshold, while dining, living, and tea spaces unfold as scenes of graceful sociability. Bedrooms and dressing suites embrace intimacy, with a figure eight bathroom revealing panoramic views. Movable furnishings and automated partitions refine transitions, distilling artistry and grace into modern luxury.
Inspiration: Rooted in the belief that the garden is an extension of the spirit, the design fuses Vincent Callebaut vision of vertical ecology with Tao Zhu Gong Eastern philosophy, shaping a contemporary residence of transcendent luxury. Public and private domains unfold in fluid continuity through adaptive furnishings and automated thresholds. Light, shadow, and greenery weave immersive narratives of serenity, allowing residents to dwell within a living sanctuary of art, nature, and spiritual elevation.
Project Duration: The project was finalized in March, 2023, in Taipei, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The entrance foyer integrates movable furnishings and a sculptural bar counter, functioning as a social antechamber that accommodates events and direct supercar elevator access, embodying both flexibility and ceremonial grace. The gallery dining room unfolds within a cylindrical volume, where four arched automated doors in Silver Fox marble frame borrowed garden views, allowing space to drift through light, shadow, and greenery. The tea room, with adjustable faucets and extendable countertops, transforms with ease into a study or reception suite, balancing sociability and quiet refinement.
