About Oo 住宅室内设计

OO是一处由屋龄四十年的老屋改造而成的住宅室内设计作品。这栋三层住宅面积195平方米，坐落于高雄一条狭窄巷弄之中。建筑立面上的开口以类似密码的图案排布，并嵌入玻璃砖，使日光得以透入，同时保障室内的私密与安全。材料选用日本桧木、实木以及无甲醛竹炭涂料。楼梯将空间加以划分，其平台采用磁性玻璃制成，同时可作为绘画书写的表面使用。

Production Technology: Japanese cypress, solid wood, coating magnetic glass, bamboo carbon paint (formaldehyde-free), LVT waterproof floor, green-key, laminate hard plastic sheet
Design Challenge: With a strong requirement of the owner, we need to find solutions of the design to make sure we can achieve the best result. Design a beauty house is the basic start of designer, but how to make a house with great functions and enough storage spaces for a family is an important issue to solve.
Research: With an architectural process named BIM (Building Information Modeling)
Inspiration: The building sits in the traditional Taiwanese residential area, the area where most of the buildings are constructed with wild window because of buildings sits side by side with only one way out; however, considered safety reason - breaking in - the entire windows are protected by iron fences, which blocked the thief but the natural lighting too. We decided to design a special façade - QR-code openings with glass brick - not only does it bring in the sunlight but resolves the safety concerns.
Project Duration: The project started in August 2018 in Kaohsiung city and finished in October 2020.
Operation Flow: Although the house located in a narrow alley, we ought to convert scarcity into opportunity. This building is organized in 3 floors, not only the stairs appear as a space divider, playing an important role, mixing and fragmenting by uses the area, but it’s landing is made from magnetic glass board, providing a drawing surface. Between the second to third floor, there are small window openings placed in different area, the owner can view though these window bricks, which give them more interaction with the family.
