The Design

About Wabi Sabi Beauty Design de Interiores Residencial

Wabi Sabi Beauty é um projeto de design de interiores residencial para uma casa recém-construída de 66 metros quadrados em Taipei. A planta foi alterada de três quartos para uma suíte principal, um escritório aberto e um closet, o que ampliou as áreas comuns de convívio. Um fundo branco faz com que o interior pareça mais amplo. A pintura decorativa imita as veias dos painéis de parede em pedra e acrescenta uma textura natural. O escritório aberto conecta-se à sala de estar e inclui uma televisão de tela grande. A cozinha abriga uma ilha, eletrodomésticos e uma adega para vinhos.

Press Kit

Unique Properties: This project is a newly built residence with an interior space of about 66 square meters. To meet the households need for independent living, the layout was adjusted from the original three room plan into a master bedroom, an open study, and a walk in closet. This change increased the shared living areas, making the space more practical and suitable for gatherings with friends and family.
Dimensions & Packaging: The project is 66 square meters.
Tags: Decorative paint, Neolith, Wood veneer sheet, Mirror, Eco panels, Slim tiles, Wabisabi
Production Technology: The overall space uses a white backdrop, which allows the space to feel more spacious. The design team adopts the Wabi sabi style as the core concept, emphasizing the beauty of nature and simplicity. Decorative paint is used to mimic the grains of PU stone wall panels, and the textures of the materials convey a rustic charm, further enhancing the natural feel of the space.
Design Challenge: With white as the dominant color tone, the design reflects a wabi sabi style. The workspace is directly connected to the living room, and the flowing lines create a cohesive setting where work and daily life blend naturally. Within the calm white backdrop, the layout supports both focus and relaxation, maintaining a sense of balance. As the light changes, the space adapts into a dynamic area for esports, illustrating the interplay between tranquility and energy while supporting a flexible lifestyle.
Research: The design project is tailored for the living needs of one to two people. The designer reconfigures the original layout, transforming two small rooms and a master room into an open study, a spacious master bedroom, and a walk in closet. This adjustment improves the overall functionality and creates a more balanced spatial layout. Considering the household’s cooking habits, the design also incorporates a kitchen island, essential appliances, and a wine rack.
Inspiration: The Japanese writer Ango Sakaguchi once said, Beauty doesnt lie in extravagant decoration, but in true existence. This idea reflects that the essence of life’s beauty is found in simplicity and nature. In this project, the concept is expressed through material textures and the use of negative space, creating a calm and harmonious atmosphere.
Project Duration: The project finished in January 2024 in Taipei, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The design embraces negative space to cultivate a sense of tranquility in daily life. Within the 66 square meters interior, the aim is to establish a refreshing and harmonious living ambience. The design team employs a light toned backdrop, layering carefully selected materials to add depth without feeling monotonous. Taking into account the households profession in finance, an open study connects with the living room, thoughtfully incorporating a large screen television to support the work needs.
