Project Description


This case involves the planning of a single-story residential building with an indoor area of approximately 79.3 square meters. The building is forty years old, and during renovations, there was a focus on the layout of pipelines and partitions, incorporating greenery and wooden elements throughout the space, along with decorative touches of woven elements. The entrance area intentionally features blank walls, with plans to have plantings growing on the terrazzo tiles in the future, allowing greenery to freely cover the walls and complement the green walls on both sides.
Natural light is brought into the living and dining areas, reflecting off the kitchen space through aluminum-framed glass sliding doors. Solid wood dining cabinets replace the full-wall system cabinets, giving the entire room a lighter feel. Notably, there is no TV wall in the public area; instead, a solid wood dining table serves as the central space for family gatherings and interactions. A light blue pendant light and iron begonia wall lamp add a finishing touch, enhancing the desired retro atmosphere.
In the private areas, woven elements are combined with a natural theme in soft furnishings, while maintaining flexibility. The master bedroom features bold color contrasts between the walls and floors, with warm orange walls complemented by metal wall lamps, creating a relaxed and comfortable resting space. Carefully selected light blue paint adds a playful touch to the nursery, while a light green wall color in the office area helps to enhance focus and concentration, connecting harmoniously with the lush greenery in the public area.
