Design Challenge: Sustainability and innovation also play important roles in the design process. The designer applies green building design in the project to build a future where human can live in harmony with the environment.

All the energy-saving and low-emission devices help elevate the living quality and make the house more livable while embracing the concept of sustainability.

Inspiration: The design idea is to express the beauty of culture, so the designer pays attention to little details. With subtle and simple color combination and exquisite leather texture, the space is elevated and has more depth to it. The gentle wood texture in calming dark colors symbolize the long-existing historical and cultural context. The quality of life and practicality is still taken care of with the advanced craftmanship.
Project Duration: The project finished in February 2021 in Taipei, Taiwan
Operation Flow: The design introduces the nature scenery and light into the space, in order to establish an architectural ambience that matches the environment. Through the basic elements of nature, an impression of culture that is about subtlety, prudence and modesty, is built.
