Tags: Wabi Sabi, Japanese Zen style, soup house, solid wooden, Tatami, gray stone
Production Technology: We demolish a solid wall, which blocks the lines of sight, and set the cabinets of consistent height to create smooth flows and cozy layouts, ingeniously fashioning an inviting cottage for taking a vacation and family gatherings. In addition, play brilliant woodwork craftsmanship to tailor-made Japanese shoji screens and sliding doors, fulfilling a Zen-like vibe and revealing a perfect balance between aesthetics and functionalities.
Design Challenge: We comply with the structural patterns and natural lighting direction to plan decent-proportioned layouts and apply pleasant interior finishing to achieve rich visual gradations and a charming Japanese atmosphere. Set a few bamboo sliding doors and Japanese shoji screens with elegant modern paper doors, and equip bamboo roller blinds with excellent light transmittance, showing glamorous light and shadow and enhancing serene Zen-like vibes.
Research: Adopt "fluency" as the core theme of planning. Along the TV wall, set up the TV stands with storage and connect with the window couch of consistent height, smoothly shaping an integrated look. And then, widen the entrance of the multi-function Japanese-style room and slightly raise the floor to achieve a combined space and improve extensive views.
Inspiration: Responding to the Japanese vacation atmosphere that the owner and his wife longed for, the outdoor laundry and clothes drying area was transformed into an indoor Hot spring bathroom
Project Duration: The project started in October 2021 in Taiwan and finished in January 2022 in Taiwan
Operation Flow: Exploit gray eco-friendly faux finishing to finish the public area facades and the main bedroom's bedside wall, with its matte feature and delicate hand-scraped texture, calmly comfort tired body and mind. In addition, select grey marble to pave the foyer floor to give a fashionable impression of entry. Then, pave the other domains' floors with balmy timbers and assort with earth-toned home furnishings, mellow Matcha green wall in the Japanese-style room, cheerfully immerse a soothing ambiance full of natural vitality, even in the hustle urban.
