How can infinite possibilities be created within a limited space? How can a minimalist design language articulate the complexity and depth of everyday life?
The site, spanning just 79.3 square meters, achieves a seamless fusion of functionality and aesthetics through a design that is both rational and poetic. Anchored in the principle of modern minimalism, it forgoes traditional decorative elements such as moldings and intricate patterns, instead emphasizing the refinement of materials and the nuanced layering of light.
The purity of materials and the fluidity of curved circulation define a space that is richly layered and ever-evolving, creating an environment that is both visually dynamic and deeply engaging.
Serving as the highlight of the space, the TV wall is designed with a metallic sheen and a lightweight visual effect. A large expanse of metallic paint is paired with black mirrors, allowing material textures to shift subtly under changing light conditions. To reduce the visual weight of the TV console, a 0.3 cm embedded iron plate creates a floating platform effect, lending the structure a sense of lightness and elegance.
Due to height limitations within the floor plan, the designer introduced curved ceiling forms to guide lighting placement. By integrating light strips that transition from low to high points, the design enhances spatial fluidity and depth, making the circulation flow more intuitively and dynamically.
Maximizing storage while not compromising aesthetics was a key priority. In the master bedroom, an expanded wardrobe and concealed doors were incorporated to balance visual harmony with functional needs. Since the homeowner rarely uses a traditional dining table but requires ample storage for appliances, a multi-functional prep cabinet was specifically designed to enhance kitchen flexibility, optimizing space utilization while maintaining a streamlined aesthetic.
