Residential House for WUUU STUDIO SDN BHD

In their quest to create a seamless and harmonious space, the designer faced the challenge of melding an unbridgeable divide between an exalted and humble ceiling. Their answer was to make the ceiling-height wall the centerpiece of the space, elevating it with a seamless gypsum board protrusion and dressing it with a vivacious hue to accentuate its grandeur. To add an extra layer of intrigue and artistic flair, they suspended a lamp from the high ceiling wall, creating a mesmerizing flow akin to that of a fountain.

Unique Properties

Less is more” has always been our design mantra. It makes no difference in this case. Troubled by the co-existence of an extremely high and low ceiling under the same space, the goal is to unify the area by utilising the ceiling-height dimension as the focal point. Besides, the wall protrusion is built seamlessly by a gypsum board for the dimensional impression. Finally, a splash of vivid colour is added to amplify the enormous bare wall and make it a key feature.

Operation Flow

The space has 4 dimensions within ground common area. Foyer has an opening where designer call it a threshold from the divider with the insertion of the refection to unfold the layers of the space. Living space with a minimal background intergrate the water fountain-like tv console that gels its skim coat finish with varies of reflections to interact user's emotions of calmness. In addition, the dripping of cantilever hanging on peddle proportionate the dimension of the space. The pop of orange colour in the cabinet create an element of surprise or contrast between the plain.

Research

The objective of the design is to create a functional design of tv console. The main feature of the design research is to utilise the existing building structure to create a distortion of dimensional impression on the wall with minimalist approach. Direction of the design is to investigate the existing building structure that may be kept or introduce with new elements that bring a sense of harmony. The design concept is inspired by the dripping fountain and with an emphasis on observation method.
