Dimensions & Packaging: This project is a four-story residence. The total design area is 212 square meter.

Tags: Industrial style, delightful, sense of living, residential design
Production Technology: Iron pieces, off-form concrete, glass, veneer, cement finish
Design Challenge: During the construction period, the most time consuming problem is the existing restrictions on this building. During the cement finishing period of each room, the designer only discovered that there is only 4 inch distance between the building and the building of neighbor when removing the tiles of the bathroom. This has led into serious water seepage phenomenon. Therefore, it was necessary to provide reinforcement measures for neighbors at the same time.
Research: Fun ideas are injected into the strong industrial style as main theme. The wall of ground floor public area uses raw cement texture as base, matches with metal elements, wood, stone countertops, distressed wallpaper, and leather furniture to create visual layers. The retro elevator door shape of the bathroom of 1st floor is very realistic. The contents of the photo wall on the 2nd floor, can be changed anytime. It shows a playful attitude towards life and conveys free spirit of industrial style.
Inspiration: The overall design is inspired by fondness for industrial style of the male client and the demand of showcasing his rich collection of figures. In the planning, the space for two children has to be also considered besides realizing adequate storage, the demand of free-flowing and comfortable home as well as achieve the essential functions of a family home.
Project Duration: The project finished in October, 2018 in Taoyuan City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: Located on the ground floor public space, the solid wall between living room and kitchen is removed while on the other hand, sliding and folding door are used to transform the original closed kitchen space into a flexible layout which can either be opened or independent. This allows the female client, who loves cooking to be able to take care of her children anytime and creates a vision of openness and permeability for this narrow space.
