- Production Technology
- In view of the huge beam passing through the center of the public area, in order to take into consideration the optimum clearance height and eliminate the pressure under the beam. The design uses classic black and white lines with contrasting thicknesses and stacking to create partitioned ceiling blocks. However, each independent block adds additional changes in details such as the treatment of the sloping dome above the dining table subtly narrows the width of the original beam.
- Design Challenge
- The central island snack area is a unique combination of a high table and bar counter that offers a variety of different ways to enjoy meals and behind it is a series of powerful home appliance cabinets and audio-visual walls. The implementation is based on the integration of the height difference of two sides of the huge structural column and is a telling test to the design team’s practical experiences.
- Research
- Space must serve people, and the "people" and "furniture" will always be the protagonists of the spaces. Therefore, prior to the implementation, priority will be given to configure the soft furnishings, lamps, carpets and artwork as that is the key to achieving a high degree of completion for the project. For example, according to the homeowner’s hospitable living habits, the living room breaks away from the traditional sofa configuration and adopts a modular and free combinable setup that is more flexible and interactive.
- Inspiration
- The original goal to combine art with life drew inspiration from the paintings of "Zao Wou-Ki" the colors, strokes, and structure of spatial color rendering and materials matching. A proposal for high-quality and more customized comfortable lifestyle was added through a keen sense of art, familiarity with materials science, exquisite craftsmanship with an attention to details and multiple advanced digital technologies such as the comprehensive integration of kitchen’s automatic doors.
- Project Duration
- The project finished in Dec. 2021 in Taipei City, Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- A large mirror is placed on the wall in the entryway for people to tidy themselves up and absorb lighting. One side of the entryway has a tall cabinet and a titanium shoe-wearing area and the screen directly enters the line of sight in the central island snack area. In addition, an obsidian-framed screen is created to direct the flow into the public area. Using the stone screen's horizontal extension as a boundary, the differences in the color, temperature and properties of the marble and wooden floors consider the issues of practicality, comfort, texture and design taste to clearly define the primary flow and areas of activity.
