About The Dawn 주택
더 던(The Dawn)은 대만 화롄시에 위치한 은퇴 후 거주를 위해 계획된 주택이다. 연면적 150제곱미터 규모로 2022년 6월에 준공되었다. 외관은 간결하게 정리되었으며, 주 파사드는 두 개의 곡선으로 윤곽이 그려진다. 곡면의 건축 외피가 아래에서 위로 뻗어 올라가, 실내는 주변 환경과 연결되면서도 여름철 더위로부터 보호받는다. 엘리베이터가 전 층에 연결되어 무장애(배리어프리) 동선을 확보한다. 미닫이문과 회전 패널을 통해 공간을 유연하게 사용할 수 있다. 최상층 욕실은 외부 창을 향해 열려 화롄의 경관을 조망한다.

Behind the Design

- Unique Properties
- As far as the exterior is concerned, the building’s appearance is simplified, demonstrating a sculpture like artwork towering over the base. The face of the main building is outlined through two curved lines. Besides, the solid construction is covered little by little and unfolded by the softly curved surface, just like a calla blooming quietly from the street block. Over the top furnishings have been abandoned to create abundant storage space.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The project is 150 square meters.

- Production Technology
- From bottom to top, the building skin is slowly stretched, which makes the indoor area and the outdoor surroundings connected yet separated. Therefore, it has effectively eliminated the heat energy brought by the sun during summertime.
- Design Challenge
- The project adopts a minimalist design style from the exterior of the building to the interior of the space, focusing on the daily functional needs as the main focus of the planning. As a result, the designer significantly reduces the unnecessary purchase of furniture and eliminates superfluous decorations. The designer's initiative has greatly avoided the waste of resources and created a sustainable and friendly house.
- Research
- On top of that, the bathroom is planned at the external window on the top floor, so the beautiful scenery of Hualien is brought into the room, offering the clients a soothing and comfortable bath experience. In addition, due to the reduction of the living area caused by this equipment, the designer has skillfully selected adjustable features such as sliding doors and revolving door panels to endow the space with variable usability.
- Inspiration
- This project is a residential space in the old district of Hualien City, Taiwan, which is the owner's and his wife's retirement home. Given the cramped and narrow space of the original residence, it is expected that the needs such as abundant light and spaciousness can be incorporated into the new home to create a comfortable and enjoyable living space. The designer has completed the entire planning with a simple yet resourceful strategy.
- Project Duration
- The project was completed in Hualien City in June 2022.
- Operation Flow
- When the night comes, the warm yellow light from the room reflects like a flute-shaped glass containing champagne, diffuses an elegant luster in the dimly lit neighborhood, and welcomes visiting relatives and friends to gather for a drink. Considering the owner's needs for barrier-free facilities, an elevator that can access each floor is installed inside the house.
