Shiu house

The "curves" of the building's façade inspired us to extend this element from the exterior into the interior. The use of circular arcs permeates the entire space design, from circular decorations to the light strips on the ceiling. These soft curves echo between the ceiling, floor, and walls, softening the sharpness that right angles can bring.

Shiu House is a beautifully renovated building that seamlessly merges its interior with the exterior, breathing new life into the structure. The entrance showcases clever slanted segmentation and tiles, not just for decoration but to emphasize the importance of natural materials, enhancing the visual appeal. The design ingeniously softens the direct sunlight into a warm, diffused glow, illuminating the first-floor interior with gentle daylight.
Inside, there is a consistent and harmonious feel throughout the space. Each element of the interior design complements the architectural exterior, from warm hues to soft-lined furniture, embodying a minimalist yet rich design ethos.

The strategic use of light and the choice of curtains maintain privacy while ensuring a free flow of light and air. Every detail echoes the homeowner's clear and generous lifestyle philosophy, favoring enduring and manageable materials for a chic yet functional living space.

The dichotomous layout keeps the living and dining spaces open at all times. Storage needs are cleverly integrated on one side, aligning with the TV wall and kitchen units. Opposite, low-profile furniture like sofas and desks are strategically placed to define another area.

Regarding core materials, fair-faced concrete meets the homeowner's preference for durable textures, and its natural mottling adds depth. This, paired with the warmth of wood surfaces, cultivates a warm and harmonious undertone.
