Unique Properties
This design project is the fusion between modern and light American styles, combining functions as club reception with residence, creating the sense of honor exclusive to club together with the low-profile luxurious effect desired to be presented in residences via the combination and application of the circulation in the public space, the central island style television wall, the dining table and the reading area.
Dimensions & Packaging
The apartment is 225 square meters.

Production Technology
Composed of the lounge and the dining room, the public space used tranquil, dignified and conservative grey color as the main color theme, placing an orange sofa in the lounge and blue long bench in the dining table area, where the contrasting colors embellish the space with layers while balancing the environment’s color temperature.
Research
As for spatial decorations, using light American style wall trims as the foundation with modern furnishing, greyish delicate spray-painted walls and coarse-textured stucco walls is the contrasting difference we have deliberately arranged.
Inspiration
We treat residence as the fundamental criterion, people who are already in different stages of life further start to care more about the need of hospitality, which is exactly what this design project is about. Allow the public space with luxurious sentiment and the private space for sensing life to exist concurrently, while using modern furniture with light American decoration as the foundation, attempting to create the contrasting aesthetics different from the past.
Project Duration
The project finished on the 30th of June in 2019, locates in New Taipei City.
Operation Flow
Eliminating the commonly seen looks of residences, low-profile yet luxurious aesthetics are combined within the conservatively dignified space, accentuating the extraordinary cultural and design content of the residence, revitalizing the houses spiritual life.
