About Nomadless 住宅室內設計

《游牧無疆》係香港一個三百二十平方呎公屋單位嘅住宅室內設計。呢個小巧嘅室內空間喺一個開放式格局入面，支援多種活動需要。度身訂造嘅傢俬可以靈活變換，令同一個空間可以化身戲院、茶室、小型圖書館或者工作室。一個通頂儲物櫃連平台，提供咗擺放電影同書籍嘅地方，而一張可升降嘅茶几就用嚟品茶。三張隱藏式檯可以拉出嚟，坐得低十五位賓客。柚木、混凝土同玻璃嘅運用，引入自然光線，營造出寧靜嘅氛圍。

Production Technology: From a highly packed spaces, the intension of undefine zone bring flexibility of
Zen microcosm within living space, functional area adjoining meditation room. While closing all the doors, the atmosphere brought the sense of stillness.

An abundant storage space hidden in a minimal way echo with the Zen empty minimalist concept, presented in recessed teak wood cabinet along the kitchen concrete wall. The standard kitchen setting is demolished to create a more
welcoming co-cooking experience.
Design Challenge: We do furniture on site to fit every corner of the room, since the design of the partition and all the glasses for dividing spaces, the whole contraction process or building the room has to be reverse. That bringing the difficulties to the structure building.
Research: Hong Kong Public Estate is a highly packed space. To the users that loves to do various activity at home alone or with huge group of friends, a more flexible and interchangeable design is needed. Transformable furniture of a 50sq.ft size then transformed to be used anywhere in the space is the method that we explored.
Inspiration: In a hustle and bustle Hong Kong city, the house served well as a breathing paradise to enjoy own lifestyle in one stable place. With its simplicity, the functionality, and the connection with the nature, the house tended to bring back the stillness of ones, where there is no more nomad life.
Project Duration: This project started in April 2018 in Hong Kong and finished in October 2018.
Operation Flow: The tailor made furniture is transformable for self enjoyment or spending time with huge group of friends. The full height shelf with platform served a huge resting place for movies and books, installed with a remote lifting table for tea time purposed. It also served 15 people dinning while all the three hidden tables are slid open from one minimal plate form space. With natural material and semi- transparent glass use for inviting natural sunlight and breeze to the interior.
