The location was chosen by the homeowner for its azure skyline and greenery; the foothills of Yangmingshan were selected to enjoy a tranquil lifestyle. The family of four loves stylistic camping and the husband has many vintage camping accessories within his collection. As such, a display storage wall was designed for the study as his personal private space. The wife is a part-time yoga instructor who values nature. It was up to the designer to find a way to implement that pure essence of nature. We converted the TV wall to a semi-open screen that covers the viewing angle of the yoga classroom that combines a large area design mirror; in addition to allowing the wife to study and adjust her posture during exercise, it acts as a mutual extension to the semi-open TV wall. The intersection of the ceiling and columns is finished with many curves while the sofa wall retains a perfect ratio of white space. Mineral paint is used to fully integrate the indoor atmosphere and views of nature outside their window. The warm afternoon sun creates the atmosphere of a happy home and records the daily life of this family of four.
