Reimagining the notion of incomplete forms derived from the wabi-sabi philosophy, the space is interwoven with several fragmented forms and shapes. This project not only embraces a simplified yet refined minimalist aesthetic but also considers daily functionality for a newlywed couple.
Instead of solid, bulky partitions, the interior planning incorporates a continuity of soft lines and organic shapes, finished in a smooth, yet hand-feel textured surface. An arced line gently separates the entrance from the living room, creating a seamless transition. Every area is demarcated by curved lines on both ceilings and walls, where each sectional function is built within the recesses, such as the sideboard and the bookshelves. Inward, a tilted form, resembling flipping pages behind the headboard, extends the design narrative, completing the lyrical living space as a whole.
From the flooring to the ceiling, from the entrance to the bedrooms, the overall earthy, off-white color palette reflects the natural properties of hand-thrown pottery, layering the space with a calm and tranquil backdrop. Sculptural interior elements, statement lighting, and unique furnishings together shape a distinctive atmosphere, while natural light accentuates the softness and sculptural quality of this harmonious living environment.
