Project Overview

This is a pre-owned residence renovation planning project. Through the designer's resourceful planning, the dark color scheme has been set as the primary spatial focus. Moreover, the deployment of a calm and restrained tone reflected the stability of the homeowner's character. In addition, the designer has thoughtfully chosen electronically controlled glass as the partition material, which can be switched between transparent and white foggy mode, allowing the homeowner to control the effect of brightness or shading according to the dwellers’ needs so that the homeowner can enjoy a spacious and bright residential space with privacy.

Project Brief

Through the designer's proper planning of the layout, as well as the careful selection of each furniture piece, this project has impressed the dwellers with a living environment worthy of careful appreciation. The exquisite design of lighting, electric glass, hidden air conditioning, and color configuration creates a modern minimalist house with layers of changes, bringing homeowners an enjoyable and ideal living environment.

Project Innovation/Need

Entering the open living and dining area, one will notice that the main focus of the public area is planned with water concrete. Also, the royal blue color scheme and leather sofas have presented a luxurious and extraordinary style. On the other hand, the wall and ceiling are designed with curved shapes and indirect lighting to produce a sense of visual layering. Furthermore, the dining and kitchen space is configured in black with a few metal objects and linear lighting to develop a low-key luxury atmosphere.

Design Challenge

At the corner of the back wall of the sofa, the designer has set up an electronically controlled glass, which extends the view and makes the space look spacious when the glass is transparent. In the bedroom, the color scheme of black and blue is continued, with some brown and yellow tones to enlighten the space. Interestingly, elements such as arcs, squares, and rhombuses are brought in to offer the space a rich and diverse look. The bathroom on the side is also designed as a partition wall with electric-controlled glass to respond to the different purposes and needs of the homeowners.

Sustainability

The house has external windows in both shared and personal living spaces. Also, the designer has installed electronically controlled glass as a partition material to welcome much natural light into the room, so the area is bathed in sunlight. Accordingly, it reduces the use of electric lights, prolongs their service life, lowers electricity consumption, and realizes the idea of energy saving and carbon reduction. The energy recovery ventilator in the interior space effectively regulates the indoor temperature to maintain a comfortable home environment and eliminates indoor air pollution sources through air exchange, providing residents with a healthy, energy-saving, and enjoyable life.
