Creep Design · CLIENT: Creep design
Z is a residential interior design for an apartment in New Taipei City. The scheme is based on cool gray tones, with marble, terrazzo, FENIX panels, cement and titanium plated metal forming the material base. Partition walls were removed so that daylight reaches the whole home, including a living room that previously had none. A three-dimensional arc ceiling shapes and softens the main space, and the curve is inspired by the form of an embrace. Decoration is kept minimal, so the texture of each material creates the layering and a calm, quiet place to rest.
