Effectively utilize the same wall to present the built-in storage design without making excessive cabinets. Ingeniously keep practical function and save space at the same time.

Inspiration
Although the family members have different visions for the future, the design team aspire to create a charming home for the family of three to live happily.

Project Duration
The project started in January 2021 in New Taipei City and finished in April 2021 in New Taipei City.
Operation Flow
The original entrance of the master bedroom on the right side of the TV wall faces the bathroom directly, which is a negative feature visually and functionally. The design team re-configure the layout; shift the door to the left side. Moreover, exploit the same hues and materials for the bedroom and living room, and frequently open up the door to create a coordinated situation between the public and private areas.
