Production Technology
Teak is commonly used in Taiwan for making furnitures, due to its natural oil makes timber termite and pest resistance and its humidity endurance which makes it suitable for this project’s mountainside location. The idea is to combine the rich luster of teak into the modern housing design, and its natural characteristics brings out the warm element that owner wishes to create.
Design Challenge
Being environmental friendly, we tried to minimize electricity consumption by utilizing natural sunlight to enhance indoor brightness during the day. However, considering the close distance with neighborhood, we have re-design all the windows position considering possible lighting and privacy issues.
Project Duration
The project was completed in 2019. Taipei City.
Operation Flow
The project was originally a 30 years old housing with small windows and insufficient sunlight. With new design, we have leveraged the mountainside garden view in the backyard and city view in the front yard by designing bigger windows in every space to enhance natural sunlight and connecting nature with living spaces.
Research
We adopt natural materials such wood, marble in warm tone and grey tiles resembling stones to connect with outdoor nature and create the warm serenity environment.
Inspiration
The owner is a young couple who wishes to create a quiet and natural environment in this busy city for children to grow up. The idea of connecting open kitchen, dining and living room into one designing space so the family members can be closely bonded in their day to day activities. There is also a second living room designed for children use which belongs to their private space.
