Sliding Lifeline

This project caters to a family with three preschoolers and a stay-at-home mother who dedicates herself to caring for the children; thus, the needs for the design must meet the ease of access and utility for them. Therefore, the designer placed an indoor slide in the center of the home, acting as the main area for children. The design allows the mom to see the kid’s activities from both the living room and kitchen with minimal obstruction. In addition, with the hub for children being in the center, the parents have easy access to tend to the children as well as utilize the expansive open space.



The interior color pallet utilizes warm earth tones to distinguish an atmosphere. The interior builds on the friendly and happy family’s personalities with soft fabrics and pleasant materials. The bed frame in the master bedroom is clad in soft cushioning support and lowered height to minimize potential injuries to the children. The designer went with a different aesthetic regarding the boy’s room. The meticulous arrangements in all aspects show us that the designer cares for the clients to satisfy their needs and wants.



The designer’s concept included maximizing interior space. Small hidden storage areas are positioned in corners and behind the slide to meet that expectation. At the same time, to gracefully integrate a slide into the home, the designer made proper use of the disfigured layout outside the original storage room by connecting the two areas through a beautiful mountain-shaped design to achieve visual compatibility.
