Hidden within the alleys of Tainan, Pong Xu is the rebirth of a forty-year-old residence. The homeowner entrusted the designers to rebuild memory through the quiet expression of Japanese minimalism. Shades of fair-faced concrete and gentle woods form the base, while soft light follows the arc of curved ceilings, easing the low beams and calming the rhythm of space.
Across its four levels, covering approximately 149 square meters, the circulation was completely redefined: the first floor serves as a reception and dining area anchored by a stone island and caramel leather chairs; the second features a long table and indoor tree that extend the memory of childhood under a banyan; the third transforms into a play and imagination zone with a cabin bed and circular nook; and the fourth returns to tranquility, providing a serene retreat for rest and contemplation.
Materials of muted grey and wood grain intertwine with begonia glass and white subway tiles, allowing Japanese restraint to meet the warmth of Tainan. The design rejects extravagance, using low-pollution paints and repairable structures. Within the cadence of light and curves, the story of home continues—childhood scenes reappear, even more beautiful than before, embodying the idea of continuity that flows through the entire space.
