About Fluid Rhythm 設計工作室室內設計

《流動韻律》係一個設計工作室嘅室內空間,同時兼作展示廳用途。整個空間面積達148.5平方米,分佈於兩層樓。一樓設有接待區、儲物空間同賓客設施。二樓則為主要工作空間,設有廚房同休息室。彎曲嘅表面由牆身延伸至天花板,埋藏式光感應器可因應人體移動而作出反應。物料方面採用咗氧化鈦金屬、光學亞加力膠(壓克力)同低碳複合石材。部分表面刻意保留未經修飾嘅狀態,以便比較唔同工藝同飾面效果。

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: This project reimagines a design studio as a living showroom where materials, craftsmanship, and light converge in an immersive sensory dialogue. Every surface is curated to invite touch, revealing the transition from raw texture to refined finish. Layered curves shape both threshold and narrative, while light traces form and material, blurring the line between process and completion. It becomes a spatial manifesto where design is experienced, not explained.
Dimensions & Packaging: This interior design studio spans two floors, covering 148.5 square meters, and is structured to balance functionality, aesthetics, and environmental adaptability. The first floor features a reception area, storage, and guest facilities, while the second floor houses the main workspace, kitchen, lounge, and private amenities. A key material choice is Japanese-imported eggshell paint, which regulates humidity, improves air quality, and reduces condensation.

Production Technology: This design integrates precision craftsmanship and advanced material applications. Key materials include Titanium Oxide Metal, Optical Acrylic, and Low Carbon Composite Stone, chosen for their reflective, translucent, and textural qualities. A custom large scale sliding door seamlessly merges with the space, while Japanese imported eggshell paint regulates humidity and minimizes glare. Embedded LED sensors enhance interactivity, reinforcing the responsive nature of space.
Design Challenge: One of the greatest challenges was the precision engineering of the large-scale sliding door, which had to support the weight of full-surface tiled panels while ensuring seamless movement. The integration of metal framework and ceramic finishes required exact tolerances to prevent fractures. Additionally, the studio itself serves as a live demonstration, showcasing a spectrum of techniques, patterns, and finishes, with some deliberately left unfinished for comparison, demanding careful composition to achieve a cohesive, authentic spatial identity.
Research: This applied design research explores how spatial composition, material interplay, and interactive lighting influence user perception. Using spatial prototyping and user observation, data was collected through movement tracking, material perception studies, and lighting response analysis. Findings revealed that dynamic lighting and contrasting textures enhance spatial awareness, informing more adaptive, sensory-driven workplace and exhibition design.
Inspiration: A space that doesn’t engage the senses is a wasted opportunity. Inspired by the fluidity of water and the interplay of light and reflection, this project transforms space into a sensory driven experience. It explores how light, material, and form create a dialogue between architecture and users, dissolving the boundary between function and emotion. The goal was to design an environment that responds dynamically to movement and perception, engaging users on a visceral level.
Project Duration: This project began its design phase in Taichung, Taiwan, in June 2023 and was completed and put into operation in January 2024.
Operation Flow: Visitors step into a welcoming expanse where curves flow seamlessly from walls to ceiling, mirroring the fluid rhythm of water in motion. Overhead, sculpted forms catch and refract light, casting shifting waves of shadow. The path unfolds naturally, guided by subtle light cues embedded in the floor, responding to each step. Ascending, daylight filters softly through curved partitions, while the vivid orange restroom offers a sudden, refreshing contrast, setting up an intentional pause within the flow.
