Unique Properties: This project is the plan for a single-storey residence with an actual indoor area of around 110m2. The first step of the plan is based on the house owner’s living needs, starting with adjusting the indoor layout and circulation, including enlarging the kitchen, as well as combining the axis for the kitchen island, the dining table and the dining area for the benefit of daily operations for the female owner who loves baking and is good at painting.
Dimensions & Packaging: The space is around 110 square meters

Production Technology: The main wall of living room & tabletop of dining table all selected the marvelous Spanish marble to reflect the outdoor greenness and the indoor lights and shadows in a low-profile way. The kitchen island bar is a three-way cabinet design, it is the highlight with exclusively ingenious details; the looks constructed with thin slate panels is primitive yet elegant, which is integrated with multiple functions including wine cabinet, two-layer dining ware drawers, electrical appliance cabinet.
Design Challenge: The coatings used on the sofa back wall, the dining room end view wall and the high cabinet in the foyer are of simulated frosted texture in pale grey color, which features the most complicated craftsmanship details in the entire project. The principle is similar to the preparation of high-molecule mortar, except the granules are replaced with ultra-fine sand to blend into the undercoat; although it is not as smooth as spray paint, it provides a lasting taste with temperature and elegance.
Research: Religion is a vital loop in the life of many people, and it all depends on the designer’s imagination and integrative ability on how to blend the spiritual power of religion or aesthetic symbolizations into space. The foyer in this project is the visual example with the religious wall as the main theme, where on the stone tabletop resembling a shrine stands the martial king statue with majestic posture, complementing the wooden grills on the sides as well as the dark-colored slate wall in the opposite, where the calming frequency provides the effect of keeping the house safe and soothing the spirit.
Inspiration: The male owner is a manager in the hi-tech industry, who have deep affection in Lego cars and limited shoes; the female owner is an artist specializing in baking, even their children are full of creativity growing under such environment. A family like such certainly has a particular preference towards the household style, therefore, the inspiration of this design project is how calm and orderly linear aesthetics can blend perfectly with sensuous and romantic elegant light classics.
Project Duration: The project finished in 2021 in Hsinchu County, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The smooth and bright marble wall in the living room, as well as the sophisticated titanium-plated decorative strips on the ceiling form a different style yet harmonious interesting correspondence with the end view wall in the dining room and the sofa back wall, which are decorated with classical and elegant frames. The private zones adopted thematic colors to define the different bedrooms.
