Design Details
- Unique Properties
- This project centers around a pure white palette, using soft curves, natural materials, and diffused light to create a calm yet fluid living environment. It responds to the modern urban desire for simplicity, comfort, and emotional wellness. The design uniqueness lies in continuous curves and subtle spatial connections, forming an interior microcity where movement is seamless and the balance between openness and privacy is gracefully maintained.
- Inspiration
- Inspiration and motives revolve around creating a dynamic, simple, and comfortable living space for university students, while also incorporating conceptual elements related to urban landscapes.
- Research
- The design process began with indepth interviews with the homeowners to understand their preference for minimalist living and material safety. We studied how each family member interacts within the space, particularly the transition between communal and private areas. Multiple layout simulations were conducted based on the 238 sqm site conditions to optimize circulation and natural lighting. The selection of mineral based coatings and low formaldehyde, fire-resistant materials was based on product testing and case analysis to ensure a healthy, durable, and visually coherent environment.
- Challenge
- The primary challenge was preserving a sense of purity within the 238 sqm layout while addressing the varied needs of a family of three. A white based palette demands flawless execution; material selection and lighting had to be meticulously tested to avoid a flat or sterile effect. Another key challenge was realizing the seamless curves throughout the space, requiring high-precision craftsmanship and on-site bending adjustments. Balancing design intention with construction feasibility became a defining aspect of the project character and creativity.
- Realization and Technology
- The design for this residence prioritizes creating a harmonious blend of functionality and conceptual depth. We employed a user centric design methodology, focusing on the needs of the university student residents for simplicity and comfort. Key Techniques & Materials: Curved Forms: The extensive use of arcs (sofa back, TV wall, ceiling) was crucial. This was not merely aesthetic; it served practical purposes like concealing the main bedroom entrance and guiding views. We meticulously planned these curves for flow and visual softness. Minimalist Palette: Adhering to the simple client brief, we opted for a limited material and color scheme.
- Operation and Interaction
- The project emphasizes natural interaction between space and its occupants. Curved circulation paths guide users gently through the environment, from the entrance to the living and dining areas, then toward the private zones. The layout balances connection and privacy, allowing each family member to enjoy individual space while engaging in shared moments in the common areas. The interplay of lighting and material shifts offers varied sensory experiences throughout the day, cultivating a warm and emotionally resonant daily rhythm.
