Production Technology
The external view is fulfilled with beautiful landscaping; thus, the living room frames the large curtain wall as a picture frame where the occupants able to enjoy the natural sunlight and have cozy reading spots. The high uniform ceiling height allows the sunlight to cast into the space and making every corner to be appreciated.
Design Challenge
Re-create the layout of the living room and the study room, having the large window view becomes the core. Prior renovation, the exposed beams were at different height and now covered with a consistent ceiling height which emphasis the contrast of colours between ceiling and joinery. The wall material extends the relevance of different materials and soften the space intensity of kitchen and dining room. The materiality and colour composition emphasis the dining space could turn into a multi-functional area at different times of a day.
Project Duration
This project started in October 2019 and completed in January 2020
