Framed Sanctuary is a minimalist interior that transforms a 40 year old apartment into a calm, reflective living space. A 1.5 centimeter steel frame defines spatial boundaries without walls, allowing light and air to flow freely. Concrete, wood and monochrome tones enhance material contrast and sensory depth. The restructured layout improves daylight access, circulation and spatial clarity, with focus on framed views and daily rituals. The project emphasizes structure, emptiness and light to create a quiet yet engaging atmosphere in a dense urban setting.
Honesty and simplicity are the values I appreciate the most. However, I understand that simplicity at its best requires perfection. Therefore, when designing, I put special emphasis on the role of detail and carefully selected materials. I believe in the power of the most natural materials, such as stone, concrete, wood and glass. Their unique character defines the whole space that defies stereotypes as well as destructive aging processes.

Its projects range from urban apartment renovations to finely detailed interior spaces. Under Tseng’s leadership, the team approaches every project with balance between user needs and spatial identity, between aesthetics and structure. The name Partidesign reflects the studio’s commitment to starting each project with a strong architectural parti, a clear conceptual foundation from which design decisions emerge.
