Situated in an urban four-story house, the project centers on the idea of “bringing scenery indoors.” Through open circulation and a suspended TV wall, the Japanese garden outside becomes part of the home’s interior landscape. The integrated metal framework and fine aluminum louvers preserve light and ventilation, letting trees, sunlight, and seasonal changes naturally breathe within the living environment.
The name “Between Realms” represents a quiet, elegant atmosphere. The designers employed gray-scale stone, matte metal, and textured surfaces to express a restrained yet layered material quality. Italian marble-pattern thin slabs and eco-friendly coatings softly reflect light, revealing different temperatures throughout the day. During daylight, shadows dance across louvers and stone; at night, light bands glide along walls. The social area captures the transformation of seasons, while the private quarters remain calm and composed, creating a container of life where scenery is cherished and time gently flows.
