The project is a renovation for a family of five—the concept design benefits from concealing unappealing aspects of the grounds. The designer utilized subtle yet romantic methods of blending the overhead beams to reduce aesthetic noise while minimizing the restrictive feel of enclosed space. The ceilings visibly anoint different spaces with clear atmospheric change. Warm interior lighting imitates and increases the natural lighting from the exterior limitedly provided.



The designers’ concept design tilted into the style of comfort and rejuvenating essence building. With this as the core, the interior is designed to enhance the client’s rejuvenation period, thus replicating the feel of being reborn after enduring the outside world. Unsubtly, the project is given the name “Xinsheng,” which symbolizes the home acting as a location for the clients to reenter stasis and later be reborn into the world, ready to face life again.



The original structure consisted of numerous unappealing beams and columns. The results were that the interior felt restrictive, with a notable negative influence on the aesthetics. To improve the room's essence, the designer adopted a subtractive design where additional materials were used to blend and conceal the repugnant columns. The design also used designs to enhance the room more by installing mid-view and end-view blockades, creating a sense of hierarchy in the space.



Living space is becoming more limited in a city where every inch of land is expensive. Creating a functional living space that resonates with the family in the limited space has always been the most important aspect of the design team. The designer concluded with a design that benefits the current and possible future needs from different life scenarios, maximizing the flexibility and functionality of the space. These aspects are critical to appease the different needs of each occupant.
