A colorful and vibrant life is infused with personal interests and styles, adding dynamic and serene daily scenes to the space. The cheerful laughter of friends gathered during weekends expands the joy of home into cherished memories for the future. The owner of this house works in the medical equipment field, has a wide social circle, and a lively personality. Described by the designer as self-disciplined, a nature lover who enjoys hiking and playing the guitar, the owner actively communicated with the designer from the pre-sale stage. Amid frequent social activities, the owner also sought a quiet personal retreat within the home. Thus, the floor plan's nearly one-to-one ratio of indoor to terrace space began to take shape. "URBESIGN DESIGN" meticulously organized these preferences and character symbols, allowing the space to reflect the owner's personality after moving in.
Considering the homeowner's potential future family plans, flexible partitions were designed to separate existing pathways, allowing for easy modifications to accommodate new members. This ensures ample space for movement transitions. Beneath the homeowner's vibrant personality lies an appreciation for the tranquility found in wabi-sabi aesthetics. Therefore, the designer used earthy tones as a calming foundation, with soft colors dominating the space and natural greens adding charm. This approach contrasts the homeowner's active exterior with the inner desire for peace. Minimalist finishes and vibrant greenery create a harmonious atmosphere throughout the home.
Entering the space, the curved island dining table serves as a focal point. Upon returning home and closing the door, the homeowner can conveniently place outerwear in the entryway storage. The designer further utilized seamless flooring color variations to distinguish different functional areas. Curved details in both horizontal and vertical planes, along with the TON 14 chairs, harmonize with the overall design. The use of terrazzo, which is guileless and more vintage compared to stone, reflects the homeowner's love for nature, allowing the homeowner to feel the vitality of the outdoors even when indoors. The storage cabinets are arranged with a balanced sense of relaxation. The television wall, topped with reeded glass, provides light transmission and clean lines, creating a sense of spaciousness and multiple expressions of light and shadow in the space.
Currently positioned as a study, the bedroom also serves as a music room, acting as a bridge between the master bedroom and the public area. Reeded glass is strategically placed to create a sense of separation without complete isolation, forming an intriguing connection between the three spaces. Entering the master bedroom, a custom desk extends from the bed frame, perfect for night reading and journaling, making the end of each day fulfilling. The designer positioned the king-size bed next to the terrace window, allowing the homeowner to wake up each morning seamlessly connected to the outdoor greenery. Two pathways lead to the walk-in closet, clearly dividing the sleeping and storage areas. In this space, where light flows freely, there is a hidden resonance of the heart, quietly appreciating the subtle beauty within.
