About Essence of Void 住宅室內設計

《虛之本質》係一個位於台灣台北市嘅住宅室內設計項目，佔地75.9平方米。呢個家包括玄關、客廳、飯廳、兩間睡房、兩個浴室同一個廚房。設計師拆除咗多餘嘅牆身，營造出開放式空間格局。灰色礦物塗料覆蓋牆面，地板則採用水磨石環氧樹脂物料。一個配以金屬結構嘅黑木中島同一個仿石收納櫃，喺冇實體間隔嘅情況下界定出各個功能區域。拱形走廊同弧形內凹天花板，為呢個單色調室內空間增添咗柔和嘅線條感。

How the space or zones were defined without setting up a clear or solid boundaries is the key design objective towards this project. Also, under the monochrome color scheme, how to create warmth and visual texture in the place.
Research: How to maximize the space-
In order to maximize the space with more possibilities and flexibilities, designer needs to rearrange the architectural walls at its best. Prior to do that, designer needs to decide the area for each zone based on analyzing owner’s life habit.

How the materials were selected-
Materials were selected based on its natural traits and texture. For the mineral paint and concrete epoxy flooring, designer keeps its rustic feeling but also sand it down a bit to have more comfortable tactile sensation.
Inspiration: The design inspiration was derived from the concept of Taoism, which emphasizes on reducing artificial interfering and worship the relationship or dialogue between objects and nature. The simplicity with forms and colors, which could arouse people's perception or sensation towards object itself, and discovering the true aesthetic value and essence of being.
Project Duration: The project started in May 2020 and finished in September 2020 in Taipei City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: An interior project with limited space, our design goal is to maximize the possibilities and flexibilities towards the space. With the concept of essence in simplicity, designer minimized design volumes and applied the black island and stone-like cabinet to define each zone and traffic flow in an open plan. In order to create a serenity environment for the owner to get away from their urban busy life, designer introduced natural materials such as mineral paint, wood and concrete flooring to provide them a new perception way towards life and its existing aesthetic.
