Hana Abdel — Fri, 26 Aug 2022 20:00:00 +0000

Along a major highway, the Yangmei Rest Area has a simple and straightforward program: a convenient store and restrooms.

Ne_On Apartment / NestSpace Design

罗靖琳 - Jinglin Luo — Mon, 23 Mar 2020 02:00:00 +0000

We as humans can take lots of inspirations from the natural scenario. During the design process of this project, we initially came up with the idea from a simple theory of the second rainbow, which is a phenomenon that is not often to see. Encouraged by the low-key, misty colour palette, we thought we could use its element into the interior, creating some kind of intimacy between people and colour. Through the invisible power of colours, we hope to achieve a goal of cultivating closer interactions along with opening a dialogue about an ideal way of living for urban-dwelling residents.

Sculpture of Materials / PENY HSIEH INTERIORS

High-quality Texture and Sculptured Space
In silence, the slight flow of space can be perceived: the facade is without the order, five-colored floor rises and falls with a little noise, and the ceiling is ripped through the direct curve. The vividness of leisure is demonstrated in the colors and materials of natural minerals, reaching relaxing breaths and coordination. Through the gray lights, more tiny pores can be seen. They are now far and quiet, breathing deeply and joyfully.
