Reconstruction of Wei Gate—The Bund Micro Apartment
Projet Description
Architects rely on professionalism and ingenuity to create a small and beautiful minimalist life in micro-apartments for young designer owners. The architect retained the original steel structure loft bed, and through the metal on-site welding and painting and polishing, made extremely fine grilles and handrail lines to echo the metal custom elements. The architect wanted the 31-square-meter space to fully accommodate various owner’s needs for living, study, and work. They needed to make good use of every space for storage, such as stepping as a drawer for baking varnish, and a box under the platform as an openable device, etc.
Founded in February 2017, Muka Architects is made up of the architect Zhang Yingqi and insisted on bringing the concepts of architecture and gardening into the interior space design, advocating the concept of "warm minimalism" and "the combination of east and west human settlements".
