嘗試透過材質觀看及觸碰成就環境性格，以此向最偉大的建築師安東尼奧・高迪致敬，擷取其純粹結構的藝術性。區塊化空間的色彩材質，琢磨出灰白配色有機形狀的連續線性體，融入於自然之中，或厚重或輕薄，追求生活光與影的無重力感與光景。隨而延續於區塊空間的和諧性，線條流動節奏表達其極簡理念，一室純粹無聲的佗寂無譁。

The residential condominium of this duplex project is located in the downtown area of Taichung city, characterized by the slatted organic shapes to pay homage to the greatest architect— Antonio Gaudi. Inﬂuenced by concepts of nature, this duplex apartment interior was not only designed around motifs of its architectural contexts, but also considered a care-free and harmonious lifestyle preparing for the resident’s retirement.

Extending the exterior element, the ruled surface forms and slatted structural shapes can be found on pendants and the bookcase centerpiece, cohering to architectural contexts with minimal forms. The high ceiling plan provides suﬃcient day-lighting into interior spaces. While the sunlight overﬂows, suﬀused with alluring shadows through slatted frameworks from exterior to interior spaces, culminating with sublime of nature ambiances.

With backdrops massively paved with white and deep grey natural marbles, the holistic planning controls minimal use of colors. The ground level encompasses multi-functional areas to cater for different sizes of activities for gaining intimacy with people.

A tailor-made free-standing bookcase stands out at the core of the plan, subdividing the living and dining area as a screen. Adapting the language of nature to the structural forms of architecture, the multiple-layered ironwork sprouts up into a new form. The form is at the same time functional and aesthetic: the circuits of audiovisual equipment are integrated and recessed in shelves, and the craftsmanship of the slim slatted ironwork carries out appealing see-through effects.

The upper level is compartmentalized into home office and bedrooms en suite, providing privacy and restful hideaways for residences. Massive window walls bring life closer to nature and environment.
