About The Soulful Sky Cabin 주거 인테리어 디자인

소울풀 스카이 캐빈(Soulful Sky Cabin)은 타오위안 국제공항 인근에 위치한 주거 인테리어 프로젝트이다. 넓게 트인 창은 항공기 객실의 개방감을 연상시키며, 공간 배치는 여러 문화를 가로지르는 여정이라는 개념을 따른다. 현관의 낮춘 천장은 개방형 거실 및 다이닝 공간으로 이어진다. 합성 패널은 여러 공급업체에서 조달해 현장에서 수작업으로 연마, 도장 및 조립하였다. 점토는 손으로 형태를 빚고 타공한 뒤 안료를 입혀 중국 수묵화의 붓 터치를 연상시키도록 했다. 다목적실은 침실로 활용하거나 공용 공간의 일부로 사용할 수 있다.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Working within a constrained budget, we sourced synthetic boards from multiple factories and applied handcrafted treatments,sanding, spraying, and material layering to imbue each surface with its own texture and character. In lieu of unavailable thin stone panels, we sculpted clay by hand, incorporating perforations and pigments to simulate the brushwork of Chinese ink paintings, infusing the space with a quiet, poetic quality.
Dimensions & Packaging: Approximately 198 m²

Production Technology: Working within budgetary constraints, we intentionally departed from standardized interior construction. Instead, we sourced synthetic panels from diverse suppliers, layering contrasting finishes and textures. Each surface was hand treated sanded, sprayed, cut, and assembled on-site,bringing warmth and individuality to the material palette while breaking away from visual flatness. In place of unavailable thin stone slabs, we turned to clay as an expressive medium. Each surface was hand-shaped, perforated, and pigmented to evoke the layered strokes of ink painting. This artisanal approach reinterprets the visual depth of stone while referencing the Eastern sensibility of restraint, natural imperfection, and poetic silence. The result is a material language that feels soulful, deliberate, and quietly powerful.
Design Challenge: The apartment’s low beam structure and overhead ductwork posed spatial challenges. By concentrating all mechanical systems above the entry and storage areas, we intentionally lowered the ceiling at the entrance,creating a moment of compression,before revealing a dramatic, open living area. This orchestrated transition brings emotional impact and spatial contrast.
Research: A fusion of Chinese ink-inspired stone tables, classical stone textures, and Italian walnut furniture reflects a dialogue between Eastern philosophy and Western craftsmanship offering a subtle, poetic cross-cultural experience.
Inspiration: Located near Taoyuan International Airport, the apartment features expansive windows reminiscent of an airplane cabin, carrying the designer’s vision of a journey across cultures and atmospheres. The entrance defined by black grilles and subtle lighting leads to a seamless, open-plan living and dining area that evokes the spaciousness of flight. Each of the two bedrooms showcases a distinct style, reflecting the diverse destinations of travel and the layered identities of the inhabitants.
Project Duration: 2025/7 Finish
Operation Flow: The client envisioned a home that could double as a private residence and a hosting venue. To accommodate this, we created a multi-functional room that blends seamlessly with the public zone when open, and transforms into a private bedroom when needed offering both flexibility and discretion.
