Unique Properties: This project is planning for a single-storey residence, according to the members’ needs, including functional units such as the foyer, the living room, the dining room, the kitchen, the three rooms, the two bathrooms and the elevated recreational area. Based on the tv wall in the living room as the central axis, where a large span of wooden surface is combined to define the public and the private sections, integrating the circulation openings leading to the master bedroom.
Dimensions & Packaging: This space is around 80 square meters

Production Technology: A customized L-shaped dining counter replaces the standard dining table in the dining zone between the foyer and the living room; imported thin tiles with high hardness, zero pores and magnificent patterns are selected for the countertop. For the consideration of living safety, the sharp corners of several indoor cabinets and table counters in the bedrooms are rounded to prevent causing harm to the members.
Design Challenge: The 3D styled ceiling in the dining zone is accurately pre-measured, where its main structure has gone through several processes in order to create the form, which was completed using the inverted suspension method. The high closet with a slanted design at the center by the bed in the master’s bedroom was also a bold attempt, as it features both practicality and design aesthetics and is also the actualization of fine details.
Research: The flexible application of natural symbols in this project not only endowed the viewers with a wild imagination, but is further the ideal approach to create a pleasant user experience. For instance, the mountain-shaped bed headboard in the master’s bedroom corresponds to the slanted ceiling, which is further integrated with the entrance to the bathroom. Moreover, the two kid’s rooms are based on the color themes of bluish-grey and greenish-grey, where wall racks in the images of forest trees or beach houses are decorated on the walls, transforming the childlike fun into ingenious uniqueness.
Inspiration: The house owner longs for a tranquil and simple lifestyle, especially with their preference towards the primitive, elegant, conservative yet warm Japanese Muji style, therefore, other than applying woodwork for the indoor decorations and the hardware, the main vision is also blended with the classic Japanese ambience. For instance, the dark-colored 3D frame of the television wall implies the image of a torii, introducing the sincerest blessings towards a safe home.
Project Duration: The project finished in June. 2021 in Taoyuan City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The designs of the ceilings in the living room and the dining room are ingenious, where the former one is integrated with air-conditioning and light, while the latter one attracts people’s attention with the crossed wooden beams, which further act as the invisible medium separating the venues.
