| DESIGN NAME: The Hidden Forest PRIMARY FUNCTION: Residence INSPIRATION: The work is not only a living space but also an area for the client to hold gatherings, hence, public spaces are designed for users to share and communicate. The entire style is inspired by the clients lifestyle and preference for marble. The core spindle, a home with luxury and peace, is thus an extension of an elegant gentrys style from the client. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The original building stands on a vast and barren land. Through thorough consideration and design, the design team try the best to center on its own features and to make the most of them. Newer, better and cozier space utilizations are added into the structure, constructing a dream home for the clients family. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Part of the first floor was a garage. Yet it confined the clients living space, which cannot present the greatness the client expected. As a result, the design team tore down the walls of the garage, making it a living room, the main gate was relocated, and the foyer was formed with existing columns. Besides, ranch sliders are installed to access to more daylight and to get wider views, which lead to more ideal life quality for dwellers. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project finished in August, 2018 in Zhubei city in Hsinchu county, Taiwan. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Interior Space and Exhibition Design |

TAGS: Modern American style, Open space, Luxury, Peace, Housing design RESEARCH ABSTRACT: In response to three generations in one family, living comfortableness is also our emphasis. Apart from increasing the hinterland in the first floor for the purpose of visual amplification by applying widening and permeable form to reshape the space, transformed the beam columns into invisible borders between regions, and further designed them as practical cabinets. We made efforts on weighing the arrangement of textures and shades, constructing main facades with graceful lines. With customized family crest decorating the foyer flooring and great visions accessing to natural landscape, it once again go back to the main theme. CHALLENGE: This is a case including interior design, landscaping and driveway layout, thus, it was a must that underwent a thorough evaluation of clients practical needs and preferences. The design team started from leveling land and renovating. As for the biggest challenge, it must be the limited construction time. Asked to finish constructing within 7 months, which allowed the family to move in, and to achieve the goal of presenting the clients demand on delicate quality.
