Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The feature of this project is the master bedroom. To draw sufficient daylight into the room to increase brightness and add a sense of vitality, the designer came up with using glass-made doors, windows, and shelves after consideration. This ingenuity allows the sunlight to shine into the area, which the owner can greet each morning with liveliness.
Dimensions & Packaging: This 39-ping space is equipped with three bedrooms and two living rooms. As one enters the residence, one can see through the entire interior from the entryway to the kitchen. The configuration is constructed under the open-end method to create a harmonious and relaxing public area to fulfill the client requirements. Meanwhile, the overall is mainly decorated with white-grey colors and is paired with wooden floorings, system cabinets, doors, chairs, and tables to create a rustic vibe.
Tags: Japanese simplism, modern luxurious, wooden elements, relaxing, heart-warming.
Production Technology: Since the client wanted to have a high-end living environment, the designer set up delicate details that are not common among interior design projects. For example, the terrazzo flooring of the entryway and the architectural concrete coating of the living room walls have brought out a primitive yet textured atmosphere, forming a rich, modern, yet orderly overall
Design Challenge: The most challenging area of this project is the master bedroom. Since the windows were poorly designed initially, daylight could not be drawn into the room, which further caused a gloomy and messy spatial feeling. This condition has also increased the designer's difficulty in designing the storage functionalities.
Research: Since the client is fond of both the Japanese simplism and modern luxurious styles, the designer has given the pre-owned residence a new lease of life after careful consideration and arrangements. Whether it is the living room, the kitchen, the bedrooms, or the entryway, the wooden materials have allowed the household members always to be soaking in relaxation. The pressure on people nowadays can simply disappear as they return to their home; the home is not just a space, but a getaway from the lousy urban life.
Inspiration: The designer has cleverly merged the two seemingly-conflicting elements into the residence to realize the client dream of having a Japanese simplism yet modern luxurious living space. A massive amount of wooden building materials are applied in the living room, while the white-grey walls have embodied the essence of the Japanese simplism style. Meanwhile, the master bedroom is decorated with glass elements to create a sense of luxury while retaining a heart-warming feeling as any residence should be equipped with.
Project Duration: The project finished in Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The client is super satisfied with the interior that combines the Japanese style with the modern tonal. Whether its the open-end living room or the master bedroom, all areas have reflected the client characteristics and preferences. Moreover, the overall traffic flow is perfectly designed, allowing household members to interact freely.
