Natural Profundity
In a city, having a nature-based residence is a rarity, with windows playing a crucial function in connecting natural scenery to everyday life. We expect that a home should allow the resident be sheltered from the elements, instead of segregated from the beauty of nature. This residence features a well-balanced exterior environment, with cascading street trees contributing to the abundant greenery and ample lighting on three sides to allow for extensive dialogue with the outdoors, responding to the personality of the residence and accommodating the greenery and light with simple and rustic materials. This is the home of Mr. Alan Yu, the director of Shang Yih Interior Design. By designing this house, he wishes to provide the most pleasant living space for his beloved family members, and at the same time, to express a philosophy - the enjoyment of a casual and natural life.
This residence is a combination of two households, with the public area on the right side and the private area on the left side of the floor plan, where most of the partitions have been stripped away to maximize the dimensions of the space. Without ornamentation or the use of excessive wall materials, the common area consisting of the living room, dining room, and an outside kitchen area is the highlight of the space, employing two primary materials - lime stone and pig iron - whose common charm lies in their rustic texture, echoing the natural greenery outside. Lime stone, with its warm white texture and natural concave and convex surfaces, is distributed in the areas where residents frequently spend time; pig iron, which appears dark and calm, oxidizes with time, documenting the states of the residence, in particular the three-sided pig iron piece at the backside of the living room, interspersed with a beveled surface, producing hierarchy in the space. During daytime, lights and shadows from the outdoors are mirrored, while at night, strip lighting and aesthetic fixtures produce a tranquil atmosphere, enabling the family to unwind naturally and immerse themselves in the time spent together.
In contrast to conventional living rooms, a separate audio-visual room is installed instead of a TV wall, enabling concentration on communication in the living room. A horizontal lounge couch is installed to bridge the living, dining, and kitchen sections. The relaxation and dining areas require different seating heights, and thus the lounge couch is designed to meet different needs. With flexibility in furniture configuration, an Italian deconstructed sofa is featured, enabling a variety of combinations according to needs and conditions, as well as a dining table with adjustable length. For the outer kitchen, a minimalist black-and-white kitchen island accommodates guest’' needs for tea, wine, and light meals, while the window-facing sink at the side sweeps away the dullness of washing dishes and invites people to communicate with nature at all times; for the interior kitchen, the design is the result of years of experience accumulated by the couple, substituting heavy hanging cabinets with minimalist shelving, with abundant storage capacity underneath, in addition to a carefully designed height disparity between the cutting board area and the dishwashing platform to accommodate varying usage.
In the left side of the floor plan, the private areas include the master bedroom and two children’s bedrooms. The black-and-white visual harmony and materials in the public area are extended to the master bedroom to construct a calm sleeping environment; for the children’s rooms, the flow passes through the playroom before reaching the dormitories - separating play and rest - and a small loft is also designed to provide a diverse range of room types and flow, a fun childhood offered by a loving father. Through planning the design of the house, designer Alan Yu illustrates a natural designing approach to demonstrate an alternative attitude and mentality of everyday life.
在城市中擁有一座自然住宅是很難得的，窗扮演著重要的角色，將自然景致與生活連結，我們期待的家是能遮風避雨，而不是隔絕自然的美好。這個住宅擁有良好的外部環境，層疊的路樹造就豐厚的綠意，充沛的三面採光能盡情與戶外交流，順應著住宅的特性，讓簡單自然的材料承接綠景與光影。這是尚藝設計俞佳宏總監的家，他想設計給親愛的家人最舒適的居住空間，同時也傳達一種理念——隨性自然的生活享受。
這個住宅是由兩戶合併為一，平面圖的右側為公領域，左側為私領域，拆除了大部分的隔間，拉大空間尺度。客廳、餐廳、外廚區所組成的公共區域是空間中的一大亮點，無須雕飾，也不使用太多壁材，最主要運用兩種材料──萊姆石與生鐵，它們共同的魅力在於樸實的質感，與戶外的自然綠景做呼應。萊姆石有溫暖的白色質感與自然凹凸面，分布於人們常待著的區塊；生鐵看似黑冷，表面會隨著時間產生氧化，記錄這個居所的狀態，尤其客廳後方的三面鐵件量體，穿插一斜面，渲染出空間的層次。白天時有來自戶外的光影相輝映，晚間則有線燈和美感燈具營造舒心的氛圍，讓人能自然鬆心情，使一家人沉浸在相處的時光中。
客廳配置思考有別於一般，不設電視牆，而是另外配置一間視聽室，讓客廳的專注力集中於交流。運用長形臥榻串聯客、餐、廚三個區塊，休憩與用餐區需要不同的座位高度，因此臥榻以高低落符合需求。家具配置十分具有彈性，選用義大利品牌的解構沙發，能隨需求與狀況改變組合，以及可調整長度的餐桌；外廚中島是黑白對比的簡約畫面，滿足待客時泡茶、品酒、輕食等需求，一旁面窗的洗水槽一掃洗滌的枯燥，讓人時刻與自然交流；內廚區的設計是夫妻兩人累積多年使用經驗的成果，在下方有充裕收納量體的條件下，以簡約層板取代厚重的吊櫃，另外，砧板區與洗碗平台貼心設計出高低差，符合不同的使用模式。
平面圖左側的私領域空間為主臥室與兩個孩子的臥房，公領域黑白對比的視覺效果與材料也延續到主臥室，營造深沉的睡眠空間；小孩房的動線會先經過遊戲室才到寢區，分開遊玩與睡眠，此外還設計了小閣樓，多元的房型與動線，是父愛給予的趣味童年。藉由自宅的規畫設計，設計師俞佳宏向人們闡述自然設計，展示另一種生活的型態與思維。
