Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: The entire space is designed on curved lines, using a smooth and elegant curved structure to shape the ceiling, and integrating different areas in the apartment. The curved and slanted lines are used to create directionality in the space, to guide the movement of the space, to change the sense of dimensionality and hierarchy in the space, and to break the original square shape and rigidity in the space with smooth lines.
Dimensions & Packaging: The area totaled 165 square meters. There are three bedrooms, a living room, a dining room, a dressing room, and three bathrooms.
Tags: Groove, Dance, Curved Structure, Versatility, Taiwan
Production Technology: The left side of the master bedroom is also curved to create a gentle embrace around the bed. The bronze metallic material and blue reflective bandage create a dance floor like effect. At night, with reflected dim light, it gives the space a sense of understated luxury.
Design Challenge: The ceiling is designed with three different heights to improve the oppressiveness brought by the large beams, and to create a sense of visual rhythm on the facade. In terms of space arrangement, the curved circular movement also brings convenience to daily life. Through lighting design and reflection of reflective materials, many white arcs overlap and extend infinitely in the space, creating a natural and lively dance effect and bringing out a modern sense of style.
Research: To enhance the versatility of the space, the guest room door is designed as a movable curved glass door. This door is normally used as a screen, but when fully opened, this room can be connected to the dining room to extend the scale of the dining room and living room. When closing the curved glass door, the guest has a private sleeping room with the lift up bed.
Inspiration: Groove comes from the rhythm, which includes the melody of high and low, strength and weakness, and the sense of rhythm that can make people relax, follow the vibe and flow of the music. In this apartment, the designer brings the rhythm of groove dance into the space with irregular curved lines, through the layered curved ceiling and sloping flooring pattern, creating a visual effect of groove in the space.
Project Duration: Located in Taichung City, construction began in May 2020 and was completed in October 2020.
Operation Flow: The entrance is created with stage imagery, using reflective mirror materials and dressing mirrors to create a stage like feeling in this buffered space. The rounded corners are also used for shoe storage. This allows users to enter and exit elegantly at the entrance, whether they are ready to go or return home.
