Beginning of the Time
Hospitality Space for Dayen Design
The designer creates spiritual forests belonging to the community for residents. Pushing open the door, the entrance of the forests reveals the mountain scenery with the change of stone patterns, and the rhythm runs through the entire space. Without losing the calm atmosphere, it seems to build a fortress of home comfort. The stable characteristics of the stone create the calmness of the home, and the image of the mountains is painted with the varied textures of nature.

Unique Properties
The walls and floor are paved with grey marble, the texture is like the sky, clouds and mountains. Inlaid with ever-changing dark stone patterns in the middle, it is lively like a slow mountain stream. The fountain formed by the two slopes of scenic stone interlaced together becomes the service counter of the lobby; the main wall behind is made of antique facing stone, the stone grain is like the beginning of the heaven and the earth, blending like a dream.

Production Technology
the main wall behind is made of antique facing stone, the stone grain is like the beginning of the heaven and the earth, blending like a dream; the big slope is overflowing with light, shaping the image of sky light of primitive caves. The corridor pillars of the intermediary are presented with ink-sprayed landscape stone, with misty brilliance in the faintness, and its ritual-like calm and tranquil charm, so that the busy mood slowly calms down.
Design Challenge
Without too much embellishment and color changes, the harmony of the color system is unified, through the introduction of a large amount of natural light, it is clean and tidy, and then play with the light, let the details embellish everything.
Project Duration
The project finished in October 2020 in Taichung, Taiwan
Operation Flow
Every move of light and shadow makes people temporarily leave real life and step into a kaleidoscope-like fantasy world. Layers of dark framed sceneries echo the image, and the image of the mountains is the overall tone of the design; the symmetry and harmony of the space make the sensory experience extremely comfortable.
Research
In the other movie viewing room, with Titus Lucretius Carus’s De Rerum Natura (De Rerum Natura) as the imagination, the senses become sharp in the dark. The distant mountains and clouds. Every move of light and shadow makes people temporarily leave real life and step into a kaleidoscope-like fantasy world.
Inspiration
This design is inspired by the famous quote of writer Haruki Murakami to create a spiritual forest belonging to the community for residents. Pushing open the door, the entrance of the forest reveals the mountain scenery with the wonderful change of stone patterns, and the elegant rhythm runs through the entire space. Without losing the calm atmosphere, it seems to build a fortress of home comfort.
