Owners are looking to recreate their once cluttered home into a peaceful and private retreat. We start by incorporating elements of nature to enhance the relaxing environment.

The design of this space is carefully crafted with natural elements. All of the walls are removed, freeing up space and connecting the living room, open kitchen, and bathroom to form a larger public space. Because the entrance area was originally the darkest part, the design added a tall shoe cabinet and storage room to create a foyer, leaving the sunlight from the window for the living room.

While we want to bring in maximum skylight to the apartment, we also want to keep the space private and calm. The black hexagonal metal fence here helps dim the lights, yet casting playful shadows on the floor.

The house has a history of over 30 years and is a tower with 10 units per floor. The rooms are arranged around a courtyard, and the public spaces are cramped with single-sided lighting. With an area of 53 square meters, there is no living room, and the kitchen and bathroom are small and dim, making it a true "old and worn-out" space.

We have planned 6 versions of the layout and discussed the future lifestyle, and finally settled on the boldest version. After repeated communication and confirmation with the manufacturer and construction team, we created an open space that best suits the homeowner's living needs.

"Flow of Silence" is a functional residential space, and also a peaceful meditation space. Our minimalist designs use pure natural texture and monochrome gray color, which create a pure canvas like a backdrop to let users perform themselves. Moreover, it is essential for creating a functional and harmonious design.

To create a sense of security for meditating, curved furniture walls create a flowing space to envelop the occupant. Besides, the furniture wall provides the living and storage system to function the blur zoning system which transforms between dining, meditation, and working. And creating irregular and zigzag walls maximizes the space’s value.

Furthermore, a healthy and eco-friendly interior must incorporate natural light and a nature view, therefore, a matt mirror on the window reflects the daylight inside. Besides, an inclined surface window frames the nature views. Thus, the indoor and outdoor spaces are connected by letting light flow through the window.

Living a hectic life in the city, you can sometimes feel like an island in the ocean. Once you learn to enjoy the solitude of your own space, and distance yourself from the bustling city life of dazzling lights and colors, you can begin to see more details of the beauty of life. Home is life. It contains our emotions, and comforts us when feeling defeated or melancholy.

We re-deconstructed the pattern configuration, left a lot of space blank, and reduced the messy colors and decorations. No matter what the weather outside is like, you can always immerse yourself in the artistic beauty of your home.
