Design Details

Unique Properties
Once the wonderful things begin to emerge, they will wrap you up sweetly like a spring rain, attaching to the skin layer by layer, seeping into your heart, the present is a touching bless, and life is absolutely sweet.
Inspiration
This case is presented in a natural and casual mix and matching style, with a variety of styles and tones, to meet the needs of different life, to taste the current spiritual feelings.
Research
The overall design adopts the concept of Reuse and Recycle strategies in sustainable development. Some of the modeling materials are made of natural thin stone slabs, and the surface is cut from pure natural rock, reducing the environmental persecution caused by the extensive use of stone slabs. The ceiling decoration can be reduced, and the exposed ceiling can distinguish space, save materials, and reduce energy consumption.
Challenge
In order to solve the problem of western sun exposure, the curtains on the western exposure surface use electric organ curtains, with an air layer in the middle, which can heat insulation in summer and winter, and use smart electric methods to make homeowners convenient to use in their home life. All households use Daikin heat exchangers, which can automatically control the temperature and humidity, PM2.5, carbon dioxide concentration, formaldehyde, organic gas, etc. of the home air through artificial intelligence and exclusive weather monitoring, and reduce allergens for indoor residences.
Realization and Technology
In terms of design techniques, in order to allow the guest restaurant to be independent and to be connected in series, the TV is used in the form of a wall-mounted rotating column, which can be rotated due to current needs, minus unnecessary space waste. The restaurant kitchen area uses carbonized veneer, so that the original plant effect of the water plant tank is consistent with the visual sense of the space.
Operation and Interaction
The overall style of the master bedroom uses the material of carbonized veneer as the main axis, allowing other walls to use matte texture to set off the theme of the main wall. The style of the guest room uses light industrial style as the main axis, and the exposed ceiling reduces material waste and adopts the construction of low-formaldehyde materials reduces the health hazards caused by material volatilization.
Project Duration and Location
The project finished in 2020 in Taoyuan, Taiwan.
Specifications
The project is 125 square meter.
