The project site is located on a narrow, southeast-facing plot, flanked by adjacent properties on both sides, resulting in spatial constraints. Under these conditions, the design team carefully planned the space to meet the client’s needs, integrating a minimalist Chinese garden ambiance with modern geometric forms. This approach creates an architectural proposal that balances cultural elegance with contemporary sophistication.
The homeowners, a retired couple, sought a residence that is comfortable, warm, and conducive to family interaction. The design particularly considers the presence of their grandchildren, ensuring that the space naturally facilitates familial bonds and shared moments.

The ground floor features an open public spaces connecting indoors and outdoors. This layout allows the grandchildren to play freely outdoors while the family enjoys tea and conversation indoors, fostering a harmonious and lively atmosphere. The second floor is designed as the daughter’s private living space, with a strong emphasis on natural lighting. The third floor accommodates essential utilities such as a water tower and air conditioning units.

Through precise spatial planning and refined architectural language, this project transforms a narrow site into a spacious and comfortable living environment. The interplay between architecture and natural light fosters a dynamic spatial experience. The design not only fulfills the homeowners’ desire for a warm, interactive family space but also merges geometric aesthetics with thoughtful material selection, crafting a residence that embodies both modern sophistication and cultural elegance—a home where cherished moments and the rhythms of nature seamlessly coexist.
