About Green Nest Design Interior Apartament

Green Nest este un interior de apartament rezidențial situat în New Taipei City, Taiwan. Locuința de 85 de metri pătrați cuprinde două dormitoare, două băi, un studio de lucru și o zonă deschisă pentru living, dining și bucătărie. Grinzile profunde de înălțimi diferite făceau spațiul mic să pară apăsător. Design-urile variate ale plafonului, cu secțiuni decupate, creează efecte de lumină și umbră și adaugă puncte focale. Pardoseala din terrazzo unește holul de la intrare, bucătăria și zona de dining, în timp ce sticla striată oferă studioului atât lumină, cât și intimitate. Lemnul și vopseaua minerală adaugă profunzime, iar formele curbate îmbunătățesc fluxul de circulație și siguranța.

Production Technology: Using terrazzo as floor material to integrate the space for foyer, kitchen and dining area, but also define the space for living space.
And the use of the reeded glass gave the working space both transparency and privacy, while the wood and mineral paint added depth and character to the space.
Design Challenge: Because this new building had lots of girders and beams not only in the living space but also in the bedrooms, how to satisfy the need of providing space for upcoming babies, friends or parents' visiting, and working at home in this 75 sqm apartment, while reducing the sense of oprresion caused by the existing structures became the main issue in this case.
Research: The goal of this project is to create a warm and inviting indoor space while addressing the sense of oppression caused by the existing deep beams. To achieve this objective, the team explored various approaches to ceiling treatments and light manipulation, drawing inspiration from numerous case studies including Valerio Olgiati, Louis Kahn, and, most importantly, ongoing plan revisions. While considering aesthetics, the project also takes into account practicality and budget constraints. Each form and void serves a specific purpose, while also concealing ample storage space within the walls.
Inspiration: This space originally had beams with different heights, making the already small space look more oppressive. However, this constraint also serves as a source of inspiration. This project utilizes various ceiling designs with hollowed-out sections to create different lighting and shadow effects, also adding focal points to the living space and alleviating the original sense of oppression.
Project Duration: Design period lasted for 4 months, and the construction took 6 months.
Operation Flow: The curved shape gave the sense of flow and became harmless for the upcoming baby. The integration of storage and pelmet made the space minimalist yet functional.
Style should not be a means, but a natural end.
