Project Duration: The project finished in February 2021 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: As soon as entering the hallway, you will see the spacious French windows. The dazzling sunlight spilled on the tiles and gray marble walls, gently lighting up space, while the wood and bamboo materials on the left and right softened the square stone. The ventilated design of the shoe cabinet specially invites the master craftsman to handle the door panels in a rattan method that conforms to the subtropical climate. The public areas provide good ventilation and lighting, and the calm and gentle Zen taste of home design.
