About Aqua Flash 公寓室內設計

Aqua Flash係一個60平方米公寓嘅室內設計。開放式格局俾充足嘅日光同靈活嘅動線得以實現。嵌入玻璃嘅趟門設計成兩個唔對稱嘅半圓形，並鑲嵌咗有色玻璃。陽光穿過有色玻璃，同吊櫃同落地櫃嘅背光照明混合，喺室內營造出變化多端嘅七彩反光效果。鮮橙色、紫色同橄欖綠嘅傢俬與黑色層壓板、淺色松木飾面同水泥背景形成強烈對比。牆上一件由彎曲霓虹燈管組成嘅裝置藝術，更為夜晚增添幾分氛圍。

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: Design concepts came from aggregations of life experiences. Complying with the slot depths from each side, glass-recessed sliding doors are shaped in two separately asymmetrical semicircles, in which the shape paid homage to the artwork, The Weather Project, of the artist, Olafur Eliasson, and the colorful gradation is inspired from concave mirror works of the artist, Anish Kapoor. While sunlight travels through colored glasses, and complements with the backlit illumination from hanging and floor-to-ceiling cabinets, countless colorful variations are created, turning the outdoor scenery into an indoor artwork, imbued with artful spatial expression.
Dimensions & Packaging: 60 square meters
Tags: arts, colors, light, black, glass
Production Technology: Catering for the apartment owner personalities, this residential space is fused with vibrant imagination and exclusive impression, fulfilling an overall chic and unique lifestyle. Advancing-color furniture pieces, such as the bright orange sofa, violet pouf, and olive honeycomb shade, moderate heaviness of black laminates, and make intriguing contrasts from dullness of pale pine veneers and cement backdrops, in which the painting is derived from a patent upcycling topcoat, Lotos, made from the upcycling residues and sediments of local reservoirs.
Design Challenge: In this small-scale apartment project, besides full consideration of functions and flexible movement, how to coexist with artistry and natural surroundings is the first priority.
Research: This project tended to create a new solution, to live out and to live with the art, to make art applicable, accessible, and reproducible to every resident. By bold use of color, we put the ideals of conceptual art into practice, and make a small space into a livable and immersive gallery, in which daily function isn't sacrificed and no unused liminal spaces.
Inspiration: Taking the reference of Conceptual art, in which the concept or idea involved in the work take precedence over traditional aesthetic, technical, and material concerns, this project design considers light as a living, self-sustaining elemental material, and then fuses color within it to carry out exceptional visual experience.
Project Duration: Completed on Oct 2022, Taichung city, Taiwan
Operation Flow: The layout aims to be open-space for abundant daylighting, sectional flexibility for agile movement, and conceptualism undertones for tasteful habitation. Another attraction drawn from the wall. The hanging piece is made by bicolor neon glass tubes, bent in irregular organic shapes. Either daytime or midnight, it provides another mood ambiance for residents, and highlights the identity of this apartment.
