- Production Technology
- The dark brown hallway connecting the living and dining room signifies the space transitions. The wood veneers are embellished with two colors, on which the glare and weak light reflections change colors and angle of views. This is the progress to the 2nd stage, of which the white and dark brown constitute the serene space. The dining room decorated with the contemporary-style crystal hanging lamp is splendid and graceful.
- Design Challenge
- The design of private area incorporating the family crest and delicate wall panel moldings proves the diversity of interior design. The linear design based on rectangular shapes clarifies the classical style, thus creating the elegant and laid-back space with white, light gray and wood grain floors. Regardless of the design ideas and materials, the entire design project upholds the attitude respecting and co-living with nature.
- Research
- In the bright and elegant living room, the family crest is decorated on the wall, on which the laser-cutting works on crest are glued on the doors. After being polished and painted in white, the symmetrical style of wall exposes the classical charms.
The open kitchen furnished with the island counter creates the smooth traffic flows and clean lines. The stair handrails embellished with cast iron laser and matte black reveal the warm textures. - Inspiration
- The transformation of the family crest is based on the house owner’s company logo expressing the company’s founder starting the business from scratch throughout the image connections. The founder of the company spent the entire life researching and developing the projects, even sleeping in the factory for all the dedications to work. The design principle consolidating the residence and company elements have accomplished a living space is exclusively tailor-made for the house owner.
- Project Duration
- The apartment is 330 square meters.
- Operation Flow
- The evolutions of space progress in three stages. People walking in the space learn humility. The design of indoor scenes is based on white essences and family crest. The eastern composed spirits and the simplified contemporary classical elements exemplify the house owner’s inner hearts with the pure and calm features of white evolving figuratively in the space.
