Production Technology
The design methodology focused on subtraction and integration to create a fluid, continuous living space. Key approaches include using semi open layouts defined by curved glass screens and grille sliding doors. The living room's main wall, made of emerald green marble, conceals the TV behind a sliding system to maintain its sculptural integrity. The design also uses a holistic sound strategy, including wet thick partition walls for insulation and sound guide grooves in the ceiling to absorb echoes, all for optimal music performance.
Design Challenge
The main challenge was to integrate a high performance sound environment for cello practice and audio playback without compromising the open and minimalist aesthetic. This required innovative solutions, such as concealing acoustic engineering within the walls and ceilings. The design also needed to create a flexible space that could be both a serene home and a dedicated music studio, which required a meticulous use of movable screens and doors.
Research
This project's engineering methodology is defined by its innovative approach to acoustics and sustainability. The use of wet method construction for precisely calculated thick partition walls and sound guide grooves hidden within the ceiling demonstrates a sophisticated approach to sound management. This ensures superior soundproofing without sacrificing usable space. The design team incorporated recycled Italian stone for the decorative screens, significantly reducing the project's carbon footprint. The integrated smart home system also ensures optimal living conditions by controlling humidity and air pressure.
Inspiration
The design was inspired by the owners' high standards for daily life and music, as well as the unique landscape of Maple Garden. The motivation was to create a retirement home that blends functionality with poetry. The design translates natural imagery, such as willow like marble walls and water ripple floors, into the interior's aesthetic. This fusion of a personal lifestyle and natural scenery served as the core inspiration for a residence that is both functional and artistic.
Project Duration
The project finished in December 2024 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow
The design is engineered for flexible and intuitive user interaction. The entire home uses a smart dimming system, allowing residents to easily switch between preset lighting scenarios to match their lifestyle rhythms. The semi open layout with flexible screens and doors allows the owners to transform the space from an open living area to a private music studio with minimal effort. This provides a seamless balance between entertaining and personal use.
