TL Apartment

TL Apartment reimagines urban living by weaving tranquility, texture, and subtle luxury. A palette of soft grays, warm walnut, and refined stone-textured surfaces sets a calm, contemporary tone, while brass accents and well-placed lighting add depth and interest. Careful attention to detail is evident in the efficient storage solutions and high-performance materials, which support comfort and sustainability. Sculpted feature walls, custom furnishings, and the shifting play of natural light create a home that feels composed, welcoming, and quietly sophisticated.

Designed for a family of four and their dogs, the renovation addresses the daily life with a focus on comfort, usability, and durability. Special attention was given to accessibility, particularly for elder family members, through level transitions, slip-resistant tiles, and grab bars that make navigation safe without compromising design integrity. Flooring and paints throughout the apartment were selected for their durable and ease of care properties, supporting a practical living environment for a pet-friendly household. Durable surfaces and integrated storage help keep the home organized and resilient against the wear of everyday activity.

The bedrooms feature walnut veneers in distinctive patterns, giving each room its own identity while maintaining a unified palette. The main bedroom highlights a radial wood arrangement, and the secondary bedroom uses angled woodwork and deep green textiles to introduce variety. Brass details and precise finishing link the private spaces to the apartment’s overall language, drawing subtle inspiration from mid-century Taiwanese interiors.

Sustainability and performance are central to the design. High-performance windows limit city noise and solar heat gain, improving comfort and energy efficiency. Ceramic and porcelain tiles were chosen for their durability and reduced environmental impact, providing the refined look of stone with more responsible sourcing. Collaboration with local woodworkers and suppliers helped ensure the quality and integrity of every detail.

The result is a balanced home that merges aesthetics with practical solutions, offering a setting that supports daily routines, adapts to the family’s needs, and provides a quiet retreat in the heart of the city.
