Bathing in the Light

微風輕拂，窗外樹影搖曳生姿，是童年熟悉的綠蔭與山景，家的記憶連同裝修一併翻新，從前填滿一家人的回憶，現在則是年屆中年的屋主一人的閒散天地。卸除過往的配置，以套房的形式重塑居家空間，低彩度的視覺鋪排也襯托出鮮明的窗景綠意，壁面上的藝術收藏與氛圍融洽共存，讓不凡的細節成就屋主的個人品味。

A gentle breeze rustles, and the shadows of trees outside the window sway gracefully. These are the familiar shades of green and mountain views from childhood. Memories of the home, along with the renovations, have been renewed: where it once held the memories of an entire family, now it serves as a leisurely realm for the middle-aged homeowner. By stripping away the previous layout and reshaping the living space in the form of a suite, the low chromatic visual arrangement also emphasizes the vibrant greenery outside the window. The art collection on the wall harmoniously coexists with the ambiance, allowing the exquisite details to showcase the homeowner's personal taste.

山景延著住宅的一側窗面展開，為了讓不切斷這幅風景卷軸，同時也符合單人使用模式，主臥室與起居室運用拉門讓空間最大化，讓每個區塊彼此開放，走道無形融合於其中。不僅是客廳、餐廳、廚房的通透感，公私領域亦能在單人使用時緊密連結，並擁抱自然美景。開放式門廊的設計也在視覺上呈現兩層空間的疊景，設計師曾祥坤在畫面上細膩構思，客廳、臥室的底牆互為端景，以線條切分映照彼此的細緻，挑選不規則的沙發增添美感變化的魅力，也是考量進出動線的配置。

The mountain view unfolds along one side of the residence's windows. To preserve this continuous panoramic vista, while also catering to a single occupant's needs, sliding doors between the master bedroom and living room have been utilized to maximize space, allowing each section to open up to one another, with the corridor seamlessly integrated. Not only is there a sense of openness in the living room, dining room, and kitchen, but the public and private spaces are also closely connected when used by a single person, embracing the natural beauty outside. The design of the open porch visually presents a layered view of two spaces. The designer Tseng Hsiang Kun, meticulously planned the layout, with the base walls of the living room and bedroom serving as focal endpoints for each other, delineated by linear design. The choice of an irregular sofa adds a charming aesthetic variation, also reflecting considerations for movement pathways.

煮一手好菜的屋主期待能放大廚房空間，因此將原本一房的格局作為廚房區塊的延伸，延伸為中島餐桌，既是客餐廳的連結，也是機能界線。中島與廚房櫃體滿足此區的收納與辦公需求，並且延續整體設計語彙，以淡彩為基底，利用櫃體間脫開的線條描繪細緻表情，包含一進門即入眼的薄磚主牆。空間中原有兩間衛浴，容易讓空間看起來破碎，因此整合為單人使用的大尺度衛浴空間，也透過薄磚主牆整合視覺，成為美感獨具的入門印象。

The homeowner, known for their culinary prowess, desired a more spacious kitchen. As a result, what was initially a single-room layout was transformed and integrated into the kitchen, culminating in a central island dining table. This island not only serves as a bridge between the living and dining areas but also stands as a functional boundary. Both the island and kitchen cabinets cater to the storage and office needs of this area. Using soft hues as the foundation, intricate details are highlighted by the gaps between the cabinets, especially the striking thin brick main wall that greets visitors upon entry. The original space had two bathrooms, which disrupted the overall cohesion. They were merged into a more expansive bathroom tailored for a single individual's use. The eye-catching thin brick main wall helps unify the visual aesthetic, offering an elegant and memorable first impression.

這個雅緻的白色宅邸有如藝廊一般，藉由許多材料堆疊，發展出白、米、灰多層次與紋理的雅興變化，既不搶去藝術品的風采，也能讓屋主隨心所欲在每個角落置換收藏。此外，特別規劃了起居室擺放山西老木櫃與縫紉機收藏，立面以減法設計自然而然形成侘寂氛圍，讓此空間既能成為擺放收藏的區塊，也提供三五好友相聚打麻將的好所在。特別的是廚房上方率性袒裸一截小梁，因不願犧牲高度，以白色噴漆處理融入空間，也標誌著舊時的家庭記憶，賦予空間新生美好的寓意。

This elegant white residence is resembling an art gallery. Through the layering of various materials, it showcases a sophisticated variation of white, beige, and gray tones and textures. This design does not overshadow the elegance of the artworks and provides the homeowner the freedom to arrange their collections throughout the space. Moreover, special planning has been made for the living room to house Shanxi antique wooden cabinets and a collection of sewing machines. The facade, designed using a subtractive approach, naturally creates a wabi-sabi atmosphere. This space not only serves as a display area for collectibles but also offers a cozy spot for gatherings with friends over mahjong. Notably, in the kitchen, a small exposed beam is deliberately left untouched. Instead of compromising the room's height, it was painted white to blend into the space, symbolizing cherished family memories of the past and bestowing the space with renewed, beautiful connotations.
