Having worked in the design and dining industry, the husband eventually chose to pursue a career in art, and plans to start a new chapter in his life with his wife by renovating his apartment that has been around for more than 20 years.
The project implements the architectural design concept, taking into account factors such as the direction of daylighting and the psychological image of residents. The owner is about to enter the forty years of life, and the simple life is the destination of inner peace, so the designer strives to create the richest nothing, which has become the designer's main pursuit of the project.
Through materials and simple layout, the project uses "invisible design" to interpret the life realm of the owner of the house, "forty is not confused, and wisdom is simple".
By carving white and black materials, the special pattern is extended, creating a suggestive dotted aisle, dividing the public and private spheres, making the circulation flow smooth, creating a state of tranquility like an art museum that is both a reception hall and a residence, and forms a harmonious existence of coexistence and integration with the owner.
After understanding the mental image of the occupants, the design returns to the logical level.
In order to show the "simple life", the site is first naturalized to zero, with the owner as the center, condensing the sense of simplicity and stability, and using black and white as the main tone, creating a quiet and tense space, so that the inner emotions are always in a calm and stable state.
There is no gorgeousness and illusion, this "rich nothing" gives stable strength, and it is also a portrayal of the state of mind of a family of three.

The overall design is a quarter circle embedded in the cuboid, highlighting the structural characteristics of the curved floor-to-ceiling windows without breaking the ground.
Through solid woodwork and mirror effects, the curved elements extend to the sides, and due to the transformation of the medium, the arcs form a ** axis, guiding the residents to transition to the bedroom, dining room, kitchen and balcony.
The common area environment must be comfortable and spacious, but it is not scattered, but more conducive to gathering, such as customizing an island in the dining area to combine with a dining table, the limited space reinforces the distance between people and retains the flexibility of communication.
