Production Technology: A lot of natural elements are key in Japanese design, to capture the essence, designer has incorporated oak wood for the warm and serene finish, light grey stone like textured cabinet material for the natural rustic finish, wooden screen door in clean-lined wood and semi translucent glass as an airy partitioning, round shaped opaque glass display cabinet for an authentic Japanese lantern like finish.
Design Challenge: The brief is to deliver a warm and homey design that complies to the functionality in a modern and Japanese style. Picking the right elements that can fulfill all the design need yet the materials have to be natural looking and durable for the sake of sustainability.
Research: Infusing a practical design into a modern home with Japanese aesthetic in a harmonious and calming finish.
Inspiration: The inspiration has driven to stay true to the personality and taste of the homeowners, who has a deep affection to the Japanese cultures. The essence lies within a cozy space with simple design elements and clutter-free for a harmonious sense of Zen vibe.
Project Duration: The project finished in 2019 in Hong Kong.
Operation Flow: The greenery from outside has made a perfect backdrop to a Zen interior which is meant to be simple, modern and uncluttered. This contemporary design approach with the wide use of natural elements give an overall fluidity and connection to the space.
