    建築以毫無退縮姿態面對各向街道,形成了室內畸零的格局,居住者往往感到空間的使用不方便。我們將住家的服務機能填充這些畸零區域,創造出完整開放的公共及私密空間,開放空間的設計重點以層次的表現為主,從陽台進入屋內感受到的是客廳、餐廳與廚房的連貫及開放性,透過各空間所對應的家具或周遭設計,由外而內、從前至後運用不同材料或家具的高度,呈現豐富但不紊亂的空間表情。空間四周以灰色水泥質感做為基底,運用木頭、鐵件、磨石子及條紋玻璃等創造溫潤活潑的調性,再以金色五金點綴出精緻感。

    受到房屋高度較低限制,利用形隨機能的方式發展出一種新的天花語彙。將必須的設備,如空調、管線、燈具及投影機等,放置於空間角落處,想像一張熱縮膜由下至上覆蓋天花,隱藏包覆原有結構及新增設備,進而形成穹隆形的設計。這種多向曲面的天花不帶有任何線條,能夠使人較難感受到空間的高度,模糊原本的壓迫感。

    The building faces the streets of all directions fearlessly, forming the fragmental indoor layout. The residents often feel the inconvenience in using the space. We fill the fragmental areas with the service functions of the residence to create the complete and open public and private space. The design point of the open space is the layer presentation. The connection and openness of the living room, dining room, and kitchen will be felt when you enter the house from the balcony. Through the furniture and surrounding design corresponding to each space, from the exterior to the interior, from the front to the back, the different materials or the furniture heights are applied to present the rich but not messy space expression. The gray concrete texture serves as the basis of the space. The use of wood, iron pieces, terrazzo, and striped glass creates the mild and lively tone, which is embellished with the golden metal parts to make some exquisiteness.

    With the limitation of the low house height, we develop a new ceiling lexicon by adjusting the form to the function. The required equipment such as the air-conditioner, piping, lights, and projector is arranged at the corner of the space. Imagine a shrink wrap cover the ceiling upwards to conceal the original structure, add equipment, and further form the dome design. The multidirectional curved surface ceiling has no lines. Therefore, people will not directly feel the height of the space, which blurs the original sense of oppression.
