DESIGN NAME: Forestry Ocean
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Interior Design
INSPIRATION: Through the gray-black stone, the staggered convex window sill, combined with the dark brown metal grating wall and the ceramic tile, which creates the façade of green branches. The vitality of the branches and leaves is properly matched with the sea of green around the base, in translation, forms a corresponding spatial comparison.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This newly built residential building is in the northern part of the Taipei Metropolitan Area, adjacent to the Yangming Mountainous Area. There are several ecological rehabilitation parks scattered around it, including the well-know Beitou Hot Spring area just a stone's throw away. In the midst of a stressful and fast-paced society, is a rare and pure land, a green breathing space in a busy city, where one can be slow, immersive, and perceptive.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The community gym has a rectangular layout, using wooden material combined with large horizontal floor-to-ceiling windows along with short-to-wall wooden grille wall, extends the consistency of the spatial design. In addition, a layout of deliberately misplaced lamps creates a situation like the depth of the forest, where the light is shining through the gap between the branches, and profoundly transforms the outdoor field features into a brand new five-dimensional experience through an exquisite design.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The main public areas in the room are based on white and dark wood veneers, creating a warming and fictional atmosphere. The ceiling of the hall is made up of horizontal strips to create a modern and minimalist texture, subtly embedded with light. The walls are made up of three-dimensional wood, stacked in trapezoid shape. With the hidden cabinets dug in part, the natural materials and the unique warmth are brought into the room while creating rich and colorful layers at the same time.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Site area: 1,660 square meter
TAGS: Residential lobby
RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Residential lobby and open space design
CHALLENGE: This spatial design concept also extends from architectural design to the layout of indoor public areas. In the large hall, the idea of a light box is applied, in which the large-scale floor-to-ceiling windows are transparent to both sides. On the one hand, it extends the spatial perception of vision, and at the same time, it also introduces the outdoor greenery into the room along with the timing and light changes. With the windows as the frame, the natural scenery is used as a painting to create a space great vitality.
