About Natural Flavor 住宅室内设计

《自然本味》是一套面积158平方米的公寓住宅室内设计作品。空间涵盖客厅、餐厅、厨房、轻吧台、开放式书房、三间卧室及两间卫浴。设计选用复合实木地板、木方、复古砖与大理石等天然材质,营造出亲近自然的LOFT风格。通过拆除一堵隔墙打通公共区域,使阳光得以从三个方向照入室内。45度斜切造型设计将原本闲置的角落转化为储物空间。所有门扇均做通顶处理,令视野更为开阔延展。

Design Challenge: The challenge is, after tearing down the previous ceiling, the messy hidden pipeline is revealed. The designer had to reintegrate all of the pipelines on the naked ceiling excluding fire hose but maintain the maximized height of public area and take the fixed location of the air conditioner of the building into concern at the same time. Thus, pipeline arrangement was the most complicated task.
Research: This project is beside the park; therefore, it has beautiful views and sunlight that comes in by three directions. However, the improper structure of previous design caused only little sunlight can be brought into the house. Designer reformed the structure by removing the wall of an extra room, turning it into an open study room. The client is the loft style lover, so the designer then lead in the loft style, opened the public area, and applied pipelines on ceiling and woods with natural texture.
Inspiration: The client working in technology industry is looking forward to the relaxation and leisure in the nature. Designer then uses primitive country situation as inspiration, makes use of natural materials as the main element, and presents the largest scale of space.
Project Duration: The project finished in August, 2018 in Taoyuan City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: Under the premise of not changing structure, designer uses 45 degree beveled design to solve the wasting space caused by corner, at the same time it maintains the smooth moving area to two bedrooms and a washroom, the distorted corner can be used for storage. All of the doors had been changed into the same height with ceiling and cabinet, so that the vision can be widen and extend.
