About Platinum Refraction Dearadh Intí Cónaithe

Is dearadh intí cónaithe é Platinum Refraction de thart ar 327 méadar cearnach i dTaipei, sa Téaváin. Seasann an teach cois Abhainn Keelung agus úsáideann sé leagan amach oscailte, ionas go roinneann an seomra suí, an limistéar itheacháin agus an chistin solas nádúrtha agus radhairc ar an abhainn. Roinneann scáileán pianó an spás agus é fós leath-thréscaoilteach, agus osclaíonn nó dúnann doirse sleamhnáin an chistin. Cuirtear dromchlaí bána le blasanna óir le chéile le cloch, miotal plátáilte tíotáiniam, leathar agus adhmad. Nascann creatlacha síleála cuartha an forhalla, limistéar an phianó agus an seomra suí.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

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

Unique Properties: The distinctiveness lies in the consistent orchestration of the entire space. The designer avoids excessive layering within this residence. Instead, ceiling frameworks and curved geometries connect the foyer, piano area, and living room to maintain visual continuity. Each focal vignette and shelving element simultaneously serves display and spatial rhythm. In this way, luxury is translated into an orderly environment suited for everyday living rather than remaining a purely stylistic expression.
Dimensions & Packaging: A residential interior space spanning approximately 327 square meters.

Production Technology: The interior integrates contrasting materials, including premium stone, titanium plated metal, leather, and wood, through bespoke craftsmanship. A focal vignette between tv wall cabinetry incorporates marble offcuts polished into circular components combined with leather wrapping and titanium detailing. Stone applications extend natural patterns to reflect the exterior landscape into the room, while vein matching is emphasized across the master bath. Metal surfaces feature varying tones adjusted to lighting conditions to reveal subtle variations.
Design Challenge: Construction took place during the peak of the pandemic, which posed significant challenges in scheduling and labor coordination. Many vertical surfaces were composed of complex assemblies involving five or more different materials. This required high level coordination among trades, particularly in stone vein matching and metal edge detailing. Through comprehensive upfront planning and real time on site adjustments, the team ensured that construction quality and progress advanced in parallel.
Research: The design process focused on applying French classical elements without the heaviness of traditional moldings. Techniques such as segmentation, broken lines, and curved detailing were adopted to establish a layered visual rhythm while maintaining spatial fluidity. Each visual endpoint within the interior was treated as an indoor landscape, allowing interior depth to engage in a dialogue with the cityscape beyond the windows. This approach creates an experiential relationship and visual resonance.
Inspiration: Located along the Keelung River, this residence responds to expansive river views and the dynamic Taipei cityscape. The design avoids overt ornamentation, adopting a modern French vocabulary of white with subtle gold accents. Through precise control of proportion and material layering, visual focus is drawn to stone textures and metallic details. This approach allows the interior to strike a balance between elegance and composure, creating a refined atmosphere that echoes the premium landscape.
Project Duration: Located in Taipei, Taiwan, this project was completed over a period of fourteen months.
Operation Flow: Spatial planning maximizes the riverfront vista through an open plan layout. The living room, dining area, and kitchen share natural light and window views. A piano screen functions as a semi permeable interface while enabling flexible spatial division. The kitchen is equipped with sliding doors for seamless transitions between open and enclosed states to balance functionality and ventilation. Private areas are connected through a corridor that maintains flexibility between interaction and privacy.
