Upon entering, a corridor lined with parallel joinery separates the kitchen from the entrance.
On the right, fluted glass display shelves visually connect the two areas, subtly obscuring the view and offering a gentle introduction to the space beyond, while maintaining privacy between the intimate dining area and the corridor.
On the left, a row of cabinets features a niche for keys, extra storage for miscellaneous items, and a concealed household shelter.
At the end of the corridor, a chaise lounge, with its inviting form, draws you into the living space—the true heart of the home.
Its block-like form subtly defines the area within the expansive open space, anchoring the environment with its geometric presence.
The console, crafted from two solid concrete blocks topped with a sleek quartz ledge, echoes this design language while adding a sense of grounded sophistication. Large-format tiles further enhance the sense of spaciousness within the space, amplifying its scale and openness.
In the dining area, a custom 2.3-meter-long concrete table sits above a concealed floor socket—a handy feature for the occasional steamboat dinners.
Nestled within the open-concept kitchen, this layout enhances the flow of the open floor plan, fostering a natural connectivity between all shared communal spaces.
Overhead, two pendant lamps made of washi paper, sourced from Japan during the homeowners' travels, provide a focal point.
In the backdrop, floor-to-ceiling open shelves showcase personal objects collected from the homeowners' travels abroad. Illuminated by recessed LED strips that cast a warm glow, these displays spark conversation, inviting stories of their journeys.
A continuous curved block conceals the private spaces, with each corner subtly guiding the flow of movement, enhancing the seamless transition between zones.
Beyond these blocks, concealed doors lead to the private areas, maintaining a sense of privacy while preserving an uninterrupted flow of the space.
