Production Technology
A new layer of thermal insulation material is paved on the roof to block the heat from the sun, and the flower stands in front of the floor-to-ceiling window are set to prevent the direct sunlight. LOW-E glass is adapted as the material of floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. By using LOW-E glass, the temperature of the sunlight and UV damage can be effectively reduced. Accompanied the installation of cellular shades, which have good thermal insulation effect, heat is efficiently reduced in the space.
Design Challenge
The organic vegetable garden is set on the rooftop; by doing so, the space is given a new meaning, the temperature is effectively reduced, and the life is enriched with joy. Besides, the crops can be provided not only to the owner but friends, which conforms to the contemporary concept of urban farm, and promotes the communication between people.
Project Duration
The project finished in August 2020 in Taichung, Taiwan.
Operation Flow
To meet the client’s expectation, the original dark colour tone is replaced with bright colours. The wood colour of the furniture is the core of the space, going with the wood tiles which are strictly proofing; the overall interior colour tone is unified.
Research
The project is on the rooftop; thus, it is easy to be hot and muggy during summer time. There was a wall with architectural concrete in the indoor space. Though the wall was built in poor construction techniques and stained as time goes by, the design team decided to keep it because the wall bears the weight of client’s memory. The design team fist polished the walls to remove mildew and stain, then coating it to restore the brand-new texture.
