Unique Properties

At the request of the homeowner, a 40-year-old house that had a narrow layout with a leaking problem and was cluttered with stuff for lack of storage has been renovated into the project, whose exceptional entrance is free from spatial limitations by embedding L-shaped light belts on the beam to mark different sections and provide sufficient light. Inspired by the "sun" and "moon" in the names of the homeowner's family, the moon-shaped screen at the entrance is symbolic of a well-rounded life.

Production Technology

Elegance and simplicity continue into the master bedroom and the secondary bedroom. What's more, the study can double as a multi-functional space. The beam on the ceiling is outfitted with fitness equipment, which allows the study to function as a gym at home. It can also be a guestroom when a friend pays a visit. Building material is meticulously selected, such as super wear-resistant flooring, calcium silicate boards, and green materials like toxin-free plates. LED lights are used throughout the place.

Design Challenge

On account of stylish unity and practical needs for storage, open-work steps of pure white and light wood hue are used in place of the old stairway. The ceiling in the stairway is equipped with LED light belts, whose light highlights the lines of the stairway and making them richly three-dimensional. The wall and neat cabinetry next to the stairway makes for a perfectly clutter-free space. A niche is behind the audio-video cabinet in the living room, so that light can be an exceptional work of installation art and serve as a special space divider while accentuating the overall refreshing and elegant color palette.

Operation Flow

Due to the homeowner’s career in the medical industry, a great emphasis is placed on accessibility in the home environment. As the original partition is retained, the layout is carefully organized. Small yet Well-Rounded has an open-plan layout, with double-faced walls used in several sections to overcome spatial limitations. For example, the open-concept kitchen has a foldable dining table and flexible cabinetry. A treadmill is embedded below the couch in the living room, while a piano is concealed under the desk in the secondary bedroom. In this way, the use of this limited footage is maximized, fitting the home with diverse functions.

Inspiration

The old, shabby apartment is reborn as a result of the ingenuity of the designing team, whose meaningful design, spatial layout, color scheme and material selection incorporate sustainability and beauty into life-like the sun and the moon that are always there.
