Residence
City Corner

Residence for Unique Interior Design & Décor Co., Ltd.

The project takes the Vintage Industrial Style as the design concept. The design team overcame the challenges, insufficient natural lighting and poor circulation in the interior space via reconfiguring layout, using transparent materials, turning direction of the kitchen, and enlarging windows. Also, they create a coherent feeling of integrated space through the exquisite combination between materials and colors. Moreover, the team changed the position of the bed which leads to more space in the bedroom so that they built a sunny reading concern in the bedroom compared to the original layout.

Design Challenge

By thoroughly considering the people's movement circulation and the natural light source, the direction of the kitchen and master bedroom were reoriented, enlarging the size of the window size, and using hollow storage cabinets as space partition, which not only allowed the natural light to penetrate and continue into the room but as a result, also provided more seamless and unobstructed storage space, eliminating the inconvenience caused by the narrow and long original space.

Project Duration

The project was completed in July 2020 in New Taipei City, Taiwan.

Operation Flow

The design team has adjusted the space layout and natural light to not only solve and eliminate the limitation of the existing narrow space, but also bring in the natural light to make the space well ventilated and comfortable. Inasmuch how to provide the client with enough storage space without giving too much abruptness to the space, was the top consideration of the design team since the beginning of the design process. In the space, hidden doors, hollow cabinets, movable cabinets, and hanging iron shelves are used to bring more convenience and flexibility to the space.

Research

The design team took the original condition of the original site as a major consideration and established a smooth layout and circulation planning of each area in the long and narrow space, introduced the daylight and bringing out a warm feeling as the light penetrates into the space by the use of hollow cabinets and enlarged window openings. Used OSB solid wood fiberboard, wood grain tiles, gray-colored glass, grey mirror, and iron components to create a rustic look of the Vintage Industrial style design.

Inspiration

Inspired by the Vintage Industrial Style, the space adopts rustic material elements while controlling the lighting of the long and narrow space in order to maximize the natural light into the space. The design team implemented a smooth and coherent design approach, such as turning the space direction, enlarging the window openings, setting up hollow cabinets as storage space, and appropriately separates each area according to its function. The design also focuses on color matching combinations, so that a quiet and leisurely tone of the space is reflected in the calm and simple color palette.
