About Forest Living Residentiell Innenarchitektur

Forest Living ass en residentiellen Interieur um Fouss vum Ali-Bierg am Chiayi County, Taiwan. D'Heem vun 166 Quadratmeter gouf fir en Eegentümer entworf, deen no enger laanger Absenz an seng Heemechtsstad zréckkoum. Den oppene Grondriss follegt dem Wee vum Dagesliicht a verbënnt de Raum graduell vu baussen no bannen. Fënsteren, déi vum Buedem bis un d'Plafong ginn, ersetzen zolidd Maueren a bréngen den Himmel an d'Gréngs an d'Haus eran. Sichtbeton-Maueren gi mat hëlze Plafongen, hëlzen Dëscher a Still kombinéiert, fir Wäermt bäizefügen. Hëlze Bicherregaler um éischte Stack verlängere sech bis op den zweete Stack.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

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

Unique Properties: Hometown is deeply ingrained in the mind. The hometown will always be home no matter how long you're away. In the latter half of the journey of life, the homeowner has decided to move back to the hometown. This retirement abode highlights the deep-seated love and longing for the hometown, emphasizing the unbreakable bond with family and the lasting impact it has on life. Accompanied by sleek iron parts, natural elements and materials, such as fair-faced concrete and wood can add human touch under the warmth of the sunlight and release warmth to the space.
Dimensions & Packaging: In the space of 166 square meters, an open-plan design allows light to naturally flow through windows. Following the path of light flow, the space is gradually linked from the outside to the inside. The floor-to-ceiling windows bring in an abundance of natural daylight, so that the public sphere is bathed in the light from dawn to dusk.

Production Technology: Art paint, painted iron parts, system cabinets, marble countertops, wooden ceilings, raw concrete
Design Challenge: Using wood materials can reduce carbon emissions during construction. The use of windows instead of solid walls blurs the distinction between inside and outside, and turns the blue sky and greenery into a stunning scene. To prevent the space from becoming too cold, wood tones add warmth to the fair-faced concrete walls. Wood book walls, wood tables, and wood chairs ooze warmth and elegance.
Research: With Japanese style as the main axis of the interior space, the walls are made of fair-faced concrete to embody serene and tranquility. The unadorned textures give a sense of stability and ease. The wood bookshelves on the first floor extend to the second floor, and the genius arrangement of cross-shaped light fixtures create an exquisite hierarchical view.
Inspiration: Back to the roots is the theme of the design. Since the building is located at the foot of Ali Mountain, a large amount of wood is used as the base, creating a harmonious connection between the interior and exterior. Large floor-to-ceiling windows help bring in the outdoors to the indoor space, creating a cozy and nurturing reading environment.
Project Duration: The project finished in December 2023 in Chiayi County, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: Adequate lighting is essential for reading. Large floor-to-ceiling windows allow plenty of natural light into the space with a high ceiling, while the triangular plates outline the mountain ridge as one goes upstairs to second floor, fostering an interaction between the outside and the inside. A sky corridor makes it feel light and airy. The metal skeleton structure is a perfect way to filter light and create an ever-changing display of light and shadow.
