About Sapphire Bostadsinredning

Book Text: Sapphire är en bostadsinredning för ett hem i Taipei, Taiwan. Boarean är cirka 83 kvadratmeter och omfattar en entré, ett vardagsrum, en matsal, ett kök, två sovrum och två badrum. Den ursprungliga planlösningen med tre sovrum ändrades till en planlösning med två sovrum för att förstora de gemensamma ytorna och förbättra hemmets sociala funktion. Blå toner och obehandlad betong kombineras med ek, teak, träfaner, kakel och metall. Rena linjer, smidiga flöden, dolda förvaringsutrymmen och skräddarsydda möbler skapar en lugn och rymlig atmosfär.
