Light Town

The project is located on the second floor of a 40-year-old apartment in Shilin, covering 99.1 square meters, including front and rear balconies. The layout was originally narrow and elongated. The owner’s requirements focused on two bedrooms, a semi-open dining and kitchen, and ample storage. The desired style blended natural Japanese aesthetics with vintage European touches, with colors restrained to wood grains and ivory white.
The designer believed that the most beautiful length is when a narrow space becomes a story in time. Accordingly, the design strategy centered on expanding depth, releasing daylight, and softening edges. By introducing a permeable entryway, a rotatable audiovisual core, and a semi-open kitchen, the elongated plan was transformed into a continuous scene of daily life.
