Na reira i raro i te kaupapa iti, ko te huatau o te Ahumahi Loft Style kua kaha ki te pupuri i te teitei mokowā taketake i te rohe tūmatanui.

Design Challenge: In terms of the placements of sofa, end-table and work desk, the designer sought to simplify, and to abandon complex elements, as well as to blur the edges amongst the three, all of which formed a flexible triangular configuration, looking spacious yet not chaotic at all. Therefore, TV rack has become a revolving TV post, and the simple rack system was deployed to replace cabinet volume.
Inspiration: Inspired by the large book collection of the client before arriving at the concept of Deconstruction of Books, as books comprise of texts, and the inherent quality of Chinese texts are formed by ink strokes, therefore by displaying the beauty of ink strokes, it articulates the key aesthetic values such as virtual, real, loose, and intense, by traversing the entire minimalist space with black dots, lines and surfaces.
