Production Technology: The TV wall, influenced by landscape paintings, uses multicolored marble mosaics to create an artwork like effect. With a metal edge and a black mirrored base featuring GUAXS vases, it exudes luxury and shine. The space showcases an Eichholtz table, Hermes pillows, Serip and Eichholtz lamps, a chandelier, Louis Vuitton lighting, and Wedgwood and Anna New York dining ware, with creative additions such as Serip organic chandeliers, foyer paintings, and a piano by Thierry Feuz.
Design Challenge: In reaction to the pandemic, a shared bathroom and dust area have been designed at the entrance, serving as the first line of defense against disease-causing organisms. When entering the foyer, visitors are welcomed by the vibrant and whimsical artworks of Swiss painter Thierry Feuz - with its sweet hues and romantic floral motifs, it is like entering a world of color and fantasy from the steel jungle of the city. At the end of the foyer is yet another painting by Thierry Feuz, and the flower-inspired chandelier by Serip, creating a visual harmony that captures and preserves beauty in this home.
Research: Drawing from the ideas of the Art Nouveau style and divergent aesthetics, the design creates an aesthetically pleasing art scene amid a riot of colors and layered materials, crafting a luxurious space that complements the aesthetic lifestyle of its residents.
Inspiration: This luxurious design combines traditional silhouettes with artistic pieces that exude a natural atmosphere and ornamental lighting that resembles blooms. The different hues and textured materials come together to form a visually stunning and artistic scene, creating an exquisite space with texture.
Project Duration: The project commenced its design phase in early 2022 in Taipei, Taiwan, and was completed by the end of 2022 in Taipei, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: Floor to ceiling windows envelop the living room, bathing it in natural light and wide vistas. A circular sofa serves as a focal point, while a sliding art door hides the TV for family gatherings. The room design, drawing from landscape art, incorporates a stunning art TV wall with metal edges. Balanced on either side by private rooms, an open communal area with a tea space offers relaxation amidst vibrant artwork.
