About Lart du Pouvoir Primarna funkcija: Stanovanjska hiša
Besedilo knjige: Lart du Pouvoir je projekt stanovanjske notranjosti, zasnovan za močno in neodvisno lastnico doma. Prostor izraža moč skozi mehkobo ter združuje čisto strukturo s tekočimi linijami. V njegovem jedru leži skulpturalni ukrivljeni strop, navdihnjen s kraljičinim plaščem, ki simbolizira gracioznost in moč. Integracija pametnega doma izboljšuje vsakdanje življenje z neopaznim nadzorom, medtem ko kamnite teksture in topli leseni elementi prinašajo ravnovesje in prefinjeno vzdušje. Razporeditev je namerno odprta, a hkrati uravnotežena s toplino in poudarki.

- Production Technology
- The project was crafted through meticulous traditional carpentry, executed entirely by local artisans. Custom millwork was seamlessly integrated with brushed iron structures, marble cladding, and three-dimensional ceramic tiles. The smart home system utilizes Aqara to control air conditioning (warm/cool), curtains, lighting, projection screen, and environmental modes. It also monitors energy consumption in real-time. The kitchen features premium cabinetry from Italian brand Stosa, selected for its refined finishes and ergonomic functionality.
- Design Challenge
- The key challenge was sculpting the ceiling to convey symbolic leadership-lowing yet restrained. It required multiple scaled mockups, structural negotiations, and finish tests to find the curve's ideal softness. Meanwhile, integrating full smart systems invisibly, while preserving minimalist purity, was a technical and aesthetic balancing act.
- Research
- Research focused on spatial emotion and behavioral flow. Interviews and lifestyle observations of the client revealed a desire for quiet strength and low-profile elegance. Light behavior mapping and thermal studies supported the ceiling design, while system logic trees for the smart home defined the user's ideal routines. The result is a space where meaning and automation coexist.
- Inspiration
- The design was inspired by the client - a woman whose presence is calm yet commanding. At the first site visit, she said, "I do not want a flat ceiling, but nothing too dramatic either." That moment led to the idea of a flowing cloak, translated into a dual-curved ceiling. The entrance features a bold geometric floor, referencing a chessboard as a metaphor for control and elegance. The space merges softness with structure, using materials and smart systems to reflect quiet authority.
- Project Duration
- The project was carried out from June 2024 to February 2025 in Taichung City, Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- The home responds to the user's presence intuitively. With voice or app control, curtains draw, lights shift to preset scenes, the air adjusts to a comfortable temperature, and the projection screen emerges from the marble wall. Each transition is designed to feel fluid and theatrical, yet discreet-reinforcing the user's control over the atmosphere.
