Production Technology
The designer strategically removed several existing walls to transform a closed kitchen into an open-plan design with a spacious, seamless flow. The newly installed kitchen island serves as the hub of the house, providing ample storage with built-in drawers and cabinets. It doubles as a prep station, a dry kitchen for light meals, and a study spot for children.
Design Challenge
The multifunctional room features a desk and a raised platform by the window, functioning as both a study and a guest room. The glass partition wall allows for easy interaction while ensuring privacy with adjustable blinds when needed. The walls are delicately adorned in a composed gray finish, resulting in a serene, peaceful situation perfect for reading and relaxation.
Project Duration
The project started in October 2023 in Taipei, Taiwan and finished in January 2024.
Operation Flow
The design leverages the project’s prime riverside location, features graceful French doors, a half-glass partition for the multifunctional room, and an open floor plan that seamlessly merges the living and dining areas with the kitchen. This integration visually enlarges the space, creating a bright, unimpeded view that allows the outdoor scenery to flow into every nook and cranny. The interplay of natural light with wood and stone patterns evokes a laid-back riverside vibe.
Research
The communal spaces are adorned with slab tiles in white, gray, and black shades, harmoniously complemented by gray plaster walls, presenting a sleek and contemporary aesthetic. Warmth and relaxation are smoothly introduced through wood panels, flooring, and burnt orange soft furnishings, naturally cultivating a rustic solace.
