About Sounds of Silence Interior Apartment Kediaman

Sounds of Silence merupakan reka bentuk dalaman apartmen kediaman yang terletak di tengah-tengah bandar Taichung. Projek ini meliputi ruang dalaman seluas 115 meter persegi. Kawasan ruang makan, ruang tamu dan ruang belajar digabungkan menjadi satu ruang terbuka yang menyokong kehidupan keluarga. Dinding tirai yang besar membingkai landskap luar seperti sebuah lukisan dan membawa masuk cahaya matahari semula jadi ke dalam ruang. Koridor masuk yang lebih gelap dengan pintu automatik separa lutsinar membentuk peralihan yang tenang dari luar. Siling diselaraskan pada ketinggian yang seragam, memberikan ruang dalaman ini ciri yang ringkas dan tenang.

Production Technology: The external view is fulfilled with beautiful landscaping; thus, the living room frames the large curtain wall as a picture frame where the occupants able to enjoy the natural sunlight and have cozy reading spots. The high uniform ceiling height allows the sunlight to cast into the space and making every corner to be appreciated.

Prior renovation, the exposed beams were at different height and now covered with a consistent ceiling height which emphasis the contrast of colours between ceiling and joinery. The wall material extends the relevance of different materials and soften the space intensity of kitchen and dining room. The materiality and colour composition emphasis the dining space could turn into a multi-functional area at different times of a day.

Inspiration: A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones from proverbs 14:30 inspired the designer as this project is situated at the heart of Taichung city and urban noise is one of the key factors that impacts our living quality. The design aims to provide the occupants a place where our heart can feel at ease.
Project Duration: This project started in October 2019 and completed in January 2020
Operation Flow: A sense of ritual of going home is established through the buffer door.
