Key design features include a TV wall with curved corners and built-in cabinetry, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality. The flooring strategy connects the wooden base of the TV area with the elevated platform of the kitchen island bar, achieving a sophisticated layering effect. Additionally, the bathroom door is designed with a grille partition screen, adding textural intrigue while offering a chic, understated flair.
Design Challenge
Addressing the functional requirements of the island bar, the design includes an elevated structure to seamlessly integrate the plumbing, enhancing utility while preventing common issues like clogging and countercurrent. This thoughtful configuration ensures that the bar’s functionality aligns with everyday living needs.
Project Duration
The project finished in April 2023 in Miaoli, Taiwan.

Research
The space was reconfigured into an open-plan studio, enhancements included a redesigned bathroom with separate wet and dry areas, the addition of a kitchen island bar and an electrical system upgrade. The TV wall is highlighted by artistic paint and the cabinets crafted from robust wood panels. Creates an immersive entertainment space, combined with a smooth living flow.
