The Design

About Home Mj Design de Interiores de Apartamento

Home MJ é um projeto de design de interiores residencial para um apartamento de 765 pés quadrados (cerca de 71 metros quadrados) em Hong Kong. A planta conecta o interior com a vista das montanhas no exterior. Um teto inclinado, limpo e minimalista conduz o olhar em direção às montanhas e evoca a sensação de estar no cume. Um móvel que combina lareira e estante percorre a parede da televisão, ao lado de um sofá de tecido e de um tapete. A madeira é empregada na área de jantar, onde o aparador e os detalhes da porta remetem ao contorno das colinas. O quarto das crianças foi concebido com a estética de um acampamento. Os armários embutidos e ocultos mantêm os ambientes amplos.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The clean, minimal slope ceiling will guide the eyes towards the mountain view. The ceiling is designed this way to imitate the feeling of standing on top of a mountain.

A 2-in-1 ‘fireplace’ and bookshelf cabinet goes all the way alongside the tv wall, with a comfortable fabric sofa and rug. The design studio used timber materials for the dining area, with the sideboard and door details designed to mimic the shape of hills. The kids' bedroom is fashioned to look like a campsite.
Dimensions & Packaging: A young couple with a baby asked mnb design studio to redefine the interior design in their 765-square feet apartment in Hong Kong. It took a considerable amount of logistical planning, like communication between the design team and the client, the construction builders, and the suppliers, to complete their envisioned apartment.
Tags: minimal, simple, clean, basic, natural, peaceful, consistency
Production Technology: Terrazzo stone, solid wood flooring, plywood in wood veneer, custom made wall paint.
Design Challenge: To create a sustainable and durable design that could withstand long-term use.
To understand the client's basic needs to build a perfect home for them.
The design has many different parts, such as new shelves, doors, and furniture made from all kinds of materials. Everything needed to be precise and fit seamlessly, so it is a challenge for both designers and builders in the field to make it work. Material selection and consistency are essential. The theme should be constant throughout the apartment, starting from the entrance up to the bedroom.
Research: By using both field and secondary research methods (such as communicating with the client about their living style and hobbies), mnb design studio was able to develop a satisfactory design that is acceptable and aesthetically pleasing. The designers visited stores, searching for suitable materials and textures to match the best options and achieve the final design.
Inspiration: This design focuses on the interplay between the exterior areas with natural and peaceful views, and the apartment's interior space. On their first visit to the site, the mountain view inspired mnb design studio’s concept, and they knew that they wanted to integrate the view as much as possible. The design studio also knew that the apartment must have spacious, natural, and comfortable elements to complement the landscape outside. Although every mountain has its unique shape, mountain ranges create a curious 'ebb and flow' design. They wanted to bring these exterior elements into the apartment and make it a perfect relaxing home for the family.
Project Duration: The design stage started in January 2021 and the construction at March 2021, completed on August 2021 in Hong Kong.
Operation Flow: Reaching the mountain top gives a person a sense of peacefulness and satisfaction. mnb design studio wanted to emulate this feeling, so they transported this concept by creating an interior inspired by mountaintops. The environment's natural beauty is an excellent concept to integrate into the design. Aside from its aesthetic properties, several hidden storage spaces also help maintain a clean, minimal, and spacious area.
