| DESIGN NAME: Stay Gold PRIMARY FUNCTION: Residential Interior INSPIRATION: Inspired by the home's exceptional ceiling height, natural light, and scenic surroundings, Stay Gold celebrates unadorned living. By stripping away excess, the design reveals the space's intrinsic beauty, using organic textures, fluid curves, and a minimalist palette to craft a serene and reflective atmosphere. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Stay Gold redefines residential interiors by embracing wabi-sabi aesthetics, transforming structural challenges into design assets. The project maximizes natural light and raw materials like suede-textured mineral paint, wood, and rattan to evoke tranquility. Soft curves and neutral tones create a harmonious spatial narrative, converting constraints into elegant focal points. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Stay Gold invites effortless interaction, guiding movement through gentle curves and natural light. The design transforms daily transitions into engaging experiences, balancing communal openness with intimate private zones. Key moments like entering the foyer or gathering in the living area create a fluid journey that enhances comfort and connectivity. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project began in June 2023 in Taoyuan, Taiwan, and was completed in September 2023. The design and planning phase lasted three months, followed by a four-month construction period. Located in the Zhonglu district, the residence embodies a refined urban retreat, balancing contemporary elegance with timeless warmth. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Interior Space and Exhibition Design |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The design employs a multi-phase process combining conceptual development, precise material selection, and advanced woodworking techniques. Flexible plywood is used to create smooth curves, suede-textured paint enhances light diffusion, and handcrafted rattan elements add warmth. These techniques ensure a harmonious yet technically refined space. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: The residence spans 110.7 square meters and consists of three bedrooms, two living areas, and two bathrooms. The layout maximizes the openness of the communal spaces, optimizing interaction and comfort. Custom-built curved partitions and integrated storage solutions enhance functionality while preserving the minimalist aesthetic. The material palette prioritizes sustainability, featuring mineral-based suede paint and recyclable natural materials. TAGS: Residential Interior, Wabi-Sabi, Minimalist Design, Interior Design, Home Design RESEARCH ABSTRACT: - CHALLENGE: Transforming structural constraints such as protruding beams into design elements was a major challenge. Internally, reconciling historical context with modern minimalism required rethinking spatial relationships. Externally, production limitations and material availability demanded innovative craftsmanship, ultimately unifying the space into a refined and harmonious environment.
