About Light Box 주거 인테리어 디자인

라이트 박스(Light Box)는 대만 타이중시의 한 아파트를 위해 완성한 주거 인테리어 디자인이다. 공간 한가운데에서 빛을 발하는 부유하는 큐브 형태의 유닛이 콘셉트의 중심을 이룬다. 이 다목적 공간은 바닥에서 40센티미터 들어 올려져 운동 공간, 손님을 맞이하는 다다미방(와시츠), 게스트룸, 혹은 거실의 확장 공간으로 활용된다. 천장에 설치된 후크는 서스펜션 트레이닝을 가능하게 하며, 거울 벽면을 아래로 접으면 더블 침대가 나타난다. 반개방형 레이아웃과 투명한 소재, 맞춤 제작된 목재 프레임이 실내를 가볍고 밝게 유지한다. 블루, 블랙, 그레이로 구성된 색채 팔레트는 미래적인 분위기를 완성한다.

Unique Properties: The residential refurbishment project Light Box is conceptually rooted on the representation of light, building a floating cubic unit that is glowing right in the center of the space. Equipped with functional gears including a pull-down standard double bed, this room with various of forms is defined by what it is used for at the moment. In this finite 76 square meters space, numerous of possibilities lies within to fully utilize every inch of it.
Dimensions & Packaging: The overall interior space is about 70 sqm, with the multifunctional room 10 sqm, and the main bedroom 13 sqm. The multifunctional room is lifted up to 40cm, which is a deliberate set to sit on comfortably. The bottom is cut by 20cm inward to keep shoes and slippers of guests, creating a sense of floating on the other hand.

Production Technology: To build an airy, light-weighted, and sleek interior that fits the profile, Fun Space Interior Design massively depends on semi-open techniques and transparent materials, combining with customized wood frames to lift up both the multifunctional room and the main bedroom. The hollowed-out bottom is designed for cable arrangement, yielding a tidy look on the outside.
Design Challenge: Functionality is paramount in this project, and the space limitation makes it the biggest challenge to overcome. For instance, the original main bedroom was split into half horizontally just to accommodate the demanded dressing room. With precise calculation and execution, both activity areas of the upper and lower level are with sufficient height to stand up fully with no constraint.

The other main challenge is the diversity of space, in particular, of the multifunctional room. Through design, the light box can be part of the public area with all the slides removed, and it can be a complete private guest room whenever needed. It is solely defined by the usage of the room at the very moment, which makes it extraordinary flexible to respond to the need.
Research: The goal of this design research is relatively simple and straight-forward: With all the functional requirements, how to make it work in such a limited space? An in-depth qualitative research was established across work backgrounds, living styles, habits, and future plans of the family, so that expectations could be defined and segmented. With the help of the bubble diagram, segments were then restructured and developed into customized plans viable to the project site.
Inspiration: The design concept is inspired from several distinguishable traits of the homeowner - an IT engineer, a bio-lover, and a faithful Christian. Naturally, the image of a floating light becomes the design essence that fits the religious family. Also, the palette of blue, black, and shades of grey is hand-picked to create a futuristic tone that matches the professional background of the owner.
Project Duration: The project finished in June 2017 in Taichung City in Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The project highlight is the multifunctional room Light Box floating right in the center of the space. Equipped with various of mechanisms, this room can be a workout room, a washitsu to accommodate guests, a guestroom to stay over, and even an extension of the living room. There are ceiling-mounted durable hooks for TRX training, and the floor-to-ceiling mirrored wall for dancing can be flipped down to set up the standard double bed. The lifting washitsu table can host up to 8 people comfortably.
