Home Voyage
The design of a home is a journey in which one explores oneself and discovers what is truly ideal for one's lifestyle, ultimately achieving spiritual contentment and tranquility. This project is in Tainan's East District. Speaking about the owner, 10mm Design's designer, Hui-Chen Hung, described her as a young, beautiful, and competent accountant in practice. When they first met, they talked about how much she appreciated the "Wabi-Sabi" atmosphere, which was a bit unexpected and somewhat challenging for her. After collecting many photos pertaining to the Wabi-Sabi style, discussing the ratio of the existing furniture to the new space, and providing many materials that the design team had not previously employed, after much discussion, they went around in circles and settled on the white sand walls, white artificial stones, and oak that Mr. Mao Shen Chiang had originally specified, so the finished work is still 80 percent Maoist in style. Huei-Chen said, "I think the owner likes the Mao-style a little more than Wabi-Sabi…".
As the owner is an accountant by profession, she required a separate lockable room to store critical documents for her clients. Therefore, the original master bedroom was converted into a study, with bookcases, a long desk, chairs, business functions such as office machinery, a yoga area, and a couch for work and relaxation. The overall layout was also modified from the original three bedrooms to two bedrooms, creating a dressing room of approximately six pings in size to meet the owner's clothing storage needs. At the entrance of the house, an entrance hall is partitioned off, and the half-chased wooden grille reflects the light from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, creating a ritualistic atmosphere when returning home. The two sides of the foyer are designed as hidden storage rooms, where the clothes and shoes from shopping and dressing outside can be packed in a neat and tidy manner so that the owner can enjoy the quietness after entering the house.
To create a sense of homeliness, we chose a light beige color scheme incorporating some warmth. The walls are made of white sand walls hand-painted by a mason, with uneven colors and bumpy texture revealing a sense of simplicity. White-colored artificial stone flooring was adopted for the public area, while oak was applied to the bedroom flooring and furniture. The natural wood added warmth to the home's atmosphere, and the wood grilles interspersed between the areas filtered light and shadow as if to embellish the quiet home with shimmering layers of movement. The HOMI design team integrated 100% of the owner's requirements and functions into the design. When the interior design was completed, the furniture was selected and arranged with the owner. This project is a joint effort between the designer and the owner. Under the interaction between the two parties, her ideal home was realized.
寧靜之家
家的設計如同一趟旅程，常是在旅途中探索自我，並發現真正適合自己的生活方式是什麼，最終獲得心靈上的安定與滿足。本案座落台南東區，十毫米設計的設計師洪惠貞談起業主，描述她是年輕、漂亮、能力又很好的執業會計師。兩人初次見面，便聊起她非常喜歡「Wabi-Sabi侘寂」的氛圍，於惠貞而言有些訝異，也有些挑戰。在收集許多侘寂風格相關照片，討論新空間和舊家具物品應該佔多少比例，以及提供許多設計團隊以往不曾使用的建材之後，經過多次討論，兜兜轉轉繞了一圈，還是選回最初毛森江先生設定的白砂牆、白色人造石及橡木，因此最終完成的作品還是帶有百分之八十的毛式風格，惠貞對此說著:「我想業主應該還是喜歡毛式風格略多於Wabi-Sabi⋯⋯」。由於業主職業為會計師，需要有獨立可上鎖的房間貯藏客戶的重要文件，故將原主臥室改為書房，安排書櫃、長桌椅、事務機等商務機能，也配置了瑜珈區和臥榻，可工作亦可悠閒。整體空間格局也從原三房更改為兩房，創造出尺度大約六坪的更衣室，以因應業主的衣物儲藏需求。而家門入口處，區隔出一道玄關，半鏤空的木格柵，若隱若現地透映出客廳落地窗光，為回家創造一份儀式感。而玄關區兩側亦為隱藏式收納以儲物間，將在外購物、穿搭的外衣、鞋物等好整以暇地一併收拾，入屋後便能享受寧靜。
為了創造家的感覺，色彩計畫選用蘊有些微溫度的淡米白色系，空間牆面為泥作師傅手工鏝抹的白砂牆，不甚均勻的濃淡顏色，以及凹凸肌理流露樸實感，公領域使用白色人造石地坪，臥室地板與家具材質則選用橡木，透過自然系木質為家的氛圍增添溫潤的底蘊，穿插領域之間的木格柵篩濾光影，彷彿為寧靜的家，點綴了微光移動的層次。綜觀整體，十毫米設計團隊將業主提出的機能與需求，大抵百分之百融入設計之中，當硬體空間完成，家具是和業主一起選定佈置，因而本案是由設計師與業主共同完成了一個作品，在兩相互動之下，完成了屬於她的理想之家。
