The proprietor of the abode boasts a vocation in structural technology and aspires to display the home's distinct characteristics through a simplistic design. After a comprehensive exchange of ideas and opinions, the agreement was reached between the design team and the homeowner to utilize the transparent raw concrete texture as the centerpiece of the design. In order to circumvent excessive embellishment, a structural appearance was adopted, and a "subtractive design" technique was employed to expand the entirety of the space. The ultimate objective was to achieve a low-key ambiance, thereby promoting a slower pace of life for the occupants, allowing them to detach from their frenzied and hectic lifestyles.

The team responsible for the interior design of the house made a conscious effort to use gentle hues, warm lighting, and natural wood to establish an ambiance of relaxation. Their aim was not merely to create a specific aesthetic, but rather to offer the residents a tranquil refuge from their hectic routines. The meticulously crafted raw concrete, distinguished by its sleek contours and thoughtfully placed apertures, engenders a sense of intimacy between the inhabitants and their living quarters. Moreover, the design elements effortlessly reflect the homeowners' orderly and tidy lifestyle, culminating in a peaceful and harmonious interplay between their abode and personal life.

The residential design aims to meet the occupants' needs and preferences while highlighting sustainability and environmental friendliness. The team kept the original spatial structure and lighting conditions to minimize resource waste and the use of artificial lighting. They also installed window trim and reflective glass film to block outdoor heat and reduce the need for air conditioning. To save energy and reduce carbon emissions, low-energy-consuming, and highly efficient LED lighting were used.
