Metro Casa is the common area interior design of a residential building. The project applies the Lohas philosophy, which focuses on health, sustainability and community life. A geometric folding plate feature shapes the lobby counter and the surrounding walls, echoing the beveled frames of the building facade. Sustainably sourced wood, decorative grilles and geometric patterns are used throughout. Seating areas, communal zones and greenery encourage social interaction. The scheme covers about 920 square meters and guides movement through the shared spaces.

Production Technology
Various seating arrangements, communal areas, and lush greenery have been thoughtfully integrated to encourage social interaction and a sense of community among residents. Ultimately, this design prioritizes not only aesthetic appeal but also the principles of sustainability and well-being, making it a remarkable example of contemporary residential architecture, one that inspires a lifestyle deeply rooted in environmental consciousness and communal harmony.
Design Challenge
Furthermore, a noteworthy feature is the entrance to the escape staircase leading down to the basement. This is distinctly marked by a door panel that exhibits a different degree of folding, cleverly ensuring a cohesive aesthetic while intuitively guiding occupants toward safety.
Project Duration
The project will be finalized in November, 2025
Operation Flow
As residents and guests navigate through the common areas, the design intuitively guides their movement, enhancing their overall experience and fostering a sense of belonging. Furthermore, the extensive use of sustainably sourced wood, decorative grilles, and dynamic geometric patterns works to elegantly unite style with practicality.
Research
As one steps into the lobby, the eye is immediately captivated by the striking, folded plate shaped counter and the elegantly designed walls that envelop the space. The multi-dimensional, folded lines ingeniously transform the initially rigid vertical surfaces into a harmonious, flowing geometric structure.
Inspiration
To enrich the aesthetic experience and functionality, the design team introduced a striking geometric folding plate feature in the interior layout. This innovative choice not only mirrors the beveled frames of the building's facade but also creates a seamless transition from the outdoor elements to the indoor living spaces.
