DESIGN NAME: Quietness
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Residence
INSPIRATION: The dialogue among the shadow, materials and saturation is so straight-forward and pretentious, and that brings it all back to the nature. The implication between the vertical and horizontal insinuates the harmony and goes way back to the original thought.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The 1/3 and 2/3 concept is applied to the space structure and configuration, which divides the space into public and private areas. The loft is pretty much in the DNA of this living space, and colors of grey and white shades are utilized based on the 1/3 concept for the overall tone. With the whole space divided into 1/3 and 2/3 ratio, each space is intrinsically connected to each other. The use of virgin materials adds to the layer of the space, while the primitive simplicity of cement forms a contrast with the subtle elements in the space. It is a beautiful contrast that blends into a sense of calmness and elegance and in a way, “Zen”.

CHALLENGE: For a dweller who often travels alone overseas, the pursuit of quietness is the focus of this project.
