DESIGN NAME: No.1328
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Residential House
INSPIRATION: The design is founded on the idea of minimizing—the less the area of the architecture, the more concentrated the living function—and the maxims of winning by losing using calmness to conquer hastiness. The designer believes that doing nothing achieves everything and that ultimate wisdom can be developed through the inner reflection of the mind and body.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This geometrically shaped architecture consisted of an exposed concrete exterior in a lush of greens. By showing construction material as it is helps put the focus on the interaction between space and light as well as user experience. The designers think that the residents living in this space can feel the spaciousness of the architecture, which takes in enough daylight and encourages between the environment and the architecture.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: From inside to outside, the continuity of the materials used and space is the top priority. Materials are suitable for indoors and outdoors are used. Extravagance is abandoned to create integrated space.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in September 2018 in Taoyuan City, Taiwan and finished December 2018.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Architecture, Building and Structure Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Kikusui Silicone Finish Fair-faced Concrete Formwork: Originally it was the exterior finish of exposed concrete that repairs the defects of fair-faced concrete. It is used as an interior and exterior wall finish. When the silicone base is applied, several layers of polishing and coloring of different shades is required before the impression of lozenge-shaped sealing joints.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: An area of space is 1650 square meters.
TAGS: Simple, minimal, energy, light, life, pure, nature, residence, green building
RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Shadows of green plants and water surrounding the building are brought indoors as light shifts; at the meantime, they serve the purpose of adjusting the microclimate in small areas so that the living environment is close to the natural environment.
CHALLENGE: Faces of both interior / exterior walls are of 34-degree gray. Textures and colors on the walls display different layers of light and shadow as light hits on the wall shifts.
