When visiting Royhong Design’s webpage, it is not difficult finding each space contains unreplaceable sense of life. It has lots of single piece furniture but shows no disorder at all. The work of “Level of Comfort ”shared this time presents a style which had appeared in the magazine s about lifestyle in Japan, giving people a sense of déjà vu. According to the interview with the designer, Hung Po-Tung, who mentioned the couple who owns the house did live in Japan for a while in the past.

 

The couple are both graphic designers, and they mainly work at home . When working, they require a quiet space without noises to concentrate on thinking. Additionally, working or walking around at night will not disturb the family. Hence, acoustic insul ation is the biggest demand of the house. However, the designer found the ceiling in the building that was built 36 years ago is not high after carrying out the actual measurement at site , and there are five beams going across the house. It has a structural challenge in terms of design.

 

Before the space is equipped with the sense of life in the image of Japanese magazine, the designer, Hung Po-Tung, rearranges the layout and traffic flow. He moved the original kitchen that was next to the living room to the rear part of the house and enlarged the indoor hallway with the d esign of ope n island. It not only highlights the visual space sense but al so connects the front and back l ighting well. The open kitchen also connects to the laundry system on the working balcony to solve the original cond itions of closure and unsmooth traffic flow. The hallway after widening is no longer just a passage way. A swing is put up here for the daughter to create a playground for her. In the future, a piano, a table, and chairs can be placed here to make the space contain more potential for space transformation.

 

After adjusting the basic layout in the space, the structural beams are hidden between the wall of rooms. Next is to start working on the demand of acoustic insulation. Other than using wooden floor and soundproof windows, the ceiling also has stre ngthened effect of sound absorption. The preference on the wood material from the couple who used to live in Japan has be enturned into a variety of appe arance in the house. You can see the wood tone from tables, chairs, furniture to the shelves used to store books or d omestic items, and even the wooden frames of doors and windows. The single chairs that they collected are also hand-made wooden chairs. In addition, the color of the wood floor has defined the public and private areas. The entryway, living room, and the reading area after entering the house are in black tone while the private areas use warm ori ginal wood color to fill up the whole room.

 

In the house, all the furniture is movable without the trace of huge amount of wooden and system cabinets. Wall-mounted shelves are used to store books, items in the kitchen or clothes, and daily items are displayed through open shelves. As long as they can be seen and be used, it will reduce the possibility to store unnecessary ite ms in the closure cabinets as well as avoid repeating purchase because of forgetting what have been bought. It also delivers a design concept of cabinets are necessarily good for storage. Moreover, it gives the wife that is good in decoration and display an opportunity to show he r talents. Each item has its value of existence to weave the details in life.

 

 

翻開非關設計的網頁,不難發現每個空間都存在著難以取代的生活感,家具單品豐富卻不顯紊亂,此次分享的「居心地」作品中,呈現出許多日本生活風格雜誌的既視感,實際與設計師洪博東訪談設計過程,也提到屋主夫妻過去的確曾在日本生活一陣子。

 

夫妻兩人都是平面設計師,主要工作環境都在家裡,工作時候著重能擁有安靜不吵雜的空間,專注思考,在深夜裡創作或走動也比較不會吵到家人,藉此隔音成為此隅住所最大的需求。然而,在設計師到現場實際丈量之後,卻發現這座36年老華廈的室內天花板不高,且橫貫著五條大樑,在設計方面存在著先天結構性的挑戰。

 

在空間形成充滿生活感的日雜形象之前,設計師洪博東重新安排格局與動線,將原先排在客廳旁邊的廚房移動到後端,以開放中島設計,加寬室內主廊道,放大空間的視覺感,也使得前後光線良好銜接,開放廚房同時連結工作陽台的衣物洗曬系統,解決原封閉、動線不流暢的條件。加寬後的廊道已不再只是一處過道,為女兒加上盪鞦韆便形成她玩樂的地方,未來擺設鋼琴、茶几、椅凳等物件,都能為此處空間變換更多可能性。

 

調整空間雛形之後,結構樑隱匿於房間牆線之間,此時便開始著手隔音需求。除了使用木地板與隔音窗之外,天花板亦選擇吸音材質加強效果。曾經在日本生活過的兩人,對於木頭材質的喜好化成多種樣貌存在於這隅家裡。從桌椅家具到收納書籍或家庭物品的層架,甚至門窗的木框都為空間增添幾許木色,一路慢慢收藏累積的單椅也是手工木製,更透過木地板的顏色界定了公私領域,以黑色作為入門後的玄關、客廳與閱讀區,私領域則是溫暖原木色,瀰漫整室。

 

在這個家裡,所有家具都是活動的,沒有大量木作與系統櫃的痕跡,以壁掛層架收納書籍、廚房物品或衣物,透過開放型櫃架展示此些日常物件,只要看得見、用得到,便能減少在封閉櫃體裡過度堆積冗物,亦避免時間一長忘記而重複購買之情形,藉此詮釋櫃體不等於好收納的設計觀點,也讓懂得佈置陳列的女主人一展長才,讓每個物件都有其存在價值,編織出生活的細節。
