About Moonlit Treading Compositio Interior Cenaculi

Textus Libri: Ambulatio Lunaris est cenaculi interior spatium septuaginta sex metrorum quadratorum in Taichung, Taiwania, mense Septembri anno bismillesimo vicesimo tertio perfectum. Compositio ab impressione minimalistica incipit, deinde complexitatem intus revelat. Formae geometricae dispersae ordinis sensum creant, dum formae inaequales eum frangunt. Pavimentum ex serpentinite Hualiensi cum parietibus textura ferri inoxidabilis instructis in colore parum saturato convenit, et notae rubrae in ornamentis supellectilis apparent. In locis communibus septa remota sunt, ita ut lux et motus libere fluant, et mutationes materiae zonas potius quam septa definiant.

Unique Properties: The project is inspired by the client's personal style exhibits a myriad of complexities, beginning with a minimalist impression, carefully delineating the complexity within. We try to translate the multiplicity into architectural vocabulary and spatial techniques.
By showcasing a contradictory cohesion and delving into the complex needs of living spaces. This design highlights personal reflection and a pursuit of geometry and art.
Dimensions & Packaging: 76 square meters

Production Technology: In a low-saturation color scheme setting, the juxtaposition of serpentinite flooring and stainless steel textured walls creates a strong atmospheric presence. The curved cracked TV wall, along with the classical decorative columns with modern pedestal replacement, exudes a sculptural artistic effect. Red is used as the accent color in furniture details, embodying delicate emotional nuances.
Design Challenge: Through the fusion and clash of architectural vocabularies, we artfully create a contradictory yet cohesive ambiance in this residence. We boldly challenge the notion of serene minimalism, exploring its nuanced response to the essential need for emotional stability and its intricate relationship with self-actualization and personal fulfillment.
Research: The project aims to create a pure and unique residential atmosphere, utilizing relatively simple building materials predominantly sourced locally. This includes ivory-white paint for walls and ceilings, eco-friendly clay made from sediment in Taiwan's reservoirs, and shattered serpentinite from Hualien. Large tiles are not considered due to usage waste. Most furniture designs incorporate considerations for future disassembly and reassembly, utilizing easy-to-maintain and durable materials such as metal and glass to prolong furniture lifespan.
Inspiration: Curves and angles are often viewed as distinct stylistic languages, yet in geometry, the trigonometric functions are also called circular functions because the same referring of the arc on a circle. In this project, geometric forms arranged in a scattered manner repeatedly appear, highlighting the sense of order in structure, and breaking the rules with unexpected asymmetrical forms. The resulting "deconstructive minimalism" is this project's interpretation of multiplicity.
Project Duration: Completed on Sep 2023, Taichung city, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: To accommodate various activities like socializing, dining, entertainment, and meetings while maintaining flexibility for future layout changes, we eliminated partitions in common areas, allowing free flow of light and movement. Material defines zones without restricting mobility. Columns subtly divide areas and mark the beginning of the corridor. The entrance of master bedroom is concealed by the dark corridor, preserving user privacy.
