Unique Properties

Because it is a multi-storey business space, I hope that each floor will be injected with different spatial expressions so that consumers can have different feelings when using it. The design is centered on the concept of "home", so that people on different floors can feel the warmth brought by home. Warmth. Different floors also combine different business methods.

Production Technology

The project is as simple as possible, and expresses a variety of design vocabulary through the repeated application of the same material, which is similar to the role played by gray and blue in this case, whether as the main color or as an accent color, the appearance of gray and blue creates a connection, and then leads to the vertical floor relationship.

Design Challenge

The challenge of this case is how to depict the different spatial representations of each floor, and at the same time tie up the coherence of the vertical floors, so as to give a complete and harmonious situational experience.

Project Duration

The project started in June 2023 in Taiwan and finished in December 2023 in Taiwan.

Operation Flow

The main business space is mainly on the first floor and the mezzanine, and transparent glass is used to give people in different spaces the opportunity to connect and interact.

Research

In the face of different space requirements, this time it is not only necessary to take into account the flow of people, the relationship between reading and dining areas, but also across the setting of offices and private residences, and check the functions of each aspect, she said, the comfortable and relaxed atmosphere is the main axis of the relationship between floors, so paying attention to light, ventilation, and leaving white space at the right time has become the key to this case.

Inspiration

Use curved extensions to create cabinets and raised floors with different functions. Soft gray blue and light wood veneer lead into an ocean-like reading space.
