Bwa foure fonse se materyèl prensipal la, epi limyè lineyè yo kreye yon efè oreyòl dous. Eskalye ki bò antre a chanje soti nan bwa foure fonse pou rive nan yon grenn bwa cho, vè ak penti blan, epi li fini nan yon fenèt.

Unique Properties
The staircase to the left of the entrance is a focal point in the space. Designed to evoke the progression of dawn, the materials transition from dark wood veneer to warm wood grain, glass, and white paint, symbolizing light's path. The view culminates at a window, where daylight meets the eye. Another key feature is the dual-directional relationship between the kitchen island and the TV wall, which rotates 360 degrees to connect the space. The kitchen island links the kitchen, dining room, and living room, creating a cohesive flow throughout the home.
Dimensions & Packaging
The two-story, 20-year-old house is 95.8 square meters with a living room, a dining room, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
The layout is significantly altered by relocating the kitchen to be closer to the living room. A rotating TV wall blurs the boundaries between the kitchen, dining room, and living room, enhancing the flow. The staircase is redirected, encouraging movement into the social area before leading upstairs, which fosters greater interaction among family members. The original kitchen is converted into an additional room.

Production Technology
Materials: rock, fluorinated glass, wood veneer, eco-friendly water-based paint.
In the color scheme, the designers utilized dark wood veneer as the main color to create a sense of sophistication and elegance. The combination of linear lighting and ambient lighting formed a halo effect, reminiscent of a solar eclipse, adding depth and dimension to the space. The fluorinated glass above the staircase concealed the light fixtures while reflecting a soft glow, further enhancing the depth of field. Amid the interplay of light and shadow, one could almost sense the natural trajectory.
Design Challenge
The staircase was reconfigured, and all old pipelines were replaced to ensure the new design was seamlessly aligned with the existing structure. Adding new rooms and expanding the kitchen required precise positioning of the staircase to maximize space and maintain smooth circulation. With only 52.8 square meters per floor, creating functional rooms and a study without making the area feel cramped posed significant challenges. Additionally, the complexity of materials like fluorinated glass and stone required careful selection and installation, extending the construction timeline.
Research
The site is an old house, named 'Eclipse,' inspired by the visual effects of light, drawing from the phenomenon of a solar eclipse. The design encapsulates natural laws within the space. Dark wood veneer serves as the main color, complemented by linear lighting to create a solar eclipse halo effect. The staircase becomes a focal point, with layers of materials mirroring celestial phenomena. The 360-degree rotating TV wall connects the entire space, and the kitchen island extends into a sloped dining table, enhancing interaction. The design combines modern warmth, functionality, and aesthetics.
Inspiration
The site is a two-story old house. The project is based on the concept of a 'total solar eclipse'. Dark wood veneer is the main color, with liner lighting to create a solar eclipse glow. The theme is the light coming out from the darkness. Functionally, according to the owner's needs, the designers rearranged the kitchen circulation on the premise of creating a new room. The kitche4n island combined with the dining table design makes the space more spacious and practical. The project combines functionality and aesthetics to create a modern and cozy home.
Project Duration
The project finished in January 2024 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow
The homeowners were highly satisfied with the design, particularly appreciating the open-plan connection between the kitchen and dining area, which enhanced interaction and flexibility. The expanded kitchen offered more storage, meeting the family's daily cooking and organization needs. Whether in the kitchen, at the island, or around the dining table, family members could interact while engaging in different activities. The 360-degree rotating TV wall also contributed to the convenience of daily life, linking various functional areas and fostering a true sense of connection in the social spaces.
