Unique Properties
Built at the traffic pivot of the community almost half a century ago, this old house was barely livable due to no renovation, but it becomes a new chic comfy inn via a fancy makeover; furthermore, its semi-open garden not only urges the visitors to explore the local culture but also invites the neighbors in the vicinity of the inn to take a break and interact with others for enhanced community bonds.

Production Technology
Built almost half a century ago, this old house was a public concern due to severe issues of sinking floors and unsafe tubes and wires, so this makeover was planned from the structural and foundation engineering works for a total solution thereto. The designer lowers the wall and adopts the French windows to keep the lobby on the first floor and the garden open with a slope at the entrance designed for seniors. Each separate guestroom has its own living room, bathroom and bedroom with a tidy look ensured by the Less is More design idea at storage and the bathroom entrance. Disparities of styles and themes are ensured by diversified soft outfits like vivid totems and metal trims.
Design Challenge
Despite severe issues of sinking floors and unsafe tubes and wires, to comply with the governmental rules with a tight budget, it is rather hard to renovate and maintain the building, but it is our duty and challenge to breed a makeover plan that not only provides a total solution to all the issues but also attains full functionalities and the chic style of the inn.
Project Duration
The project started in April and finished in June 2019 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow
The garden is a transitional medium between the community and the inn, so the designer literally lowers the wall; moreover, the open lobby and the open entrance hopefully remove the partition between the community and the inn, make the visitors know the vicinity of the inn, invite the neighbors to take a break and interact with others and breed the unexpected dynamics between the community and the visitors spontaneously.
Research
For a total solution to the structural and tubing issues of this old house, the makeover was planned from the foundation engineering works, the unneeded partitions are removed from the lobby and the garden for indoor and outdoor openness and friendly interaction, the guestroom is planned with full functionalities with a tidy look ensured by the Less is More design idea and multiple styles are given to the spaces by soft outfits like chic vivid wallpapers and metal trims.
