Designing a home is a delicate balance of creativity, precision, and understanding of client needs. Yuan Gallery, an esteemed interior design company, has mastered this balance with its award-winning project, “Clearness and Serenity.” Recently honored with the Luxury Lifestyle Award for Best Contemporary Interior Construction and Fit-Out, 2024 in Taiwan, this project stands as a testament to the team’s commitment to innovative design and client satisfaction. This article takes you behind the scenes of “Clearness and Serenity,” offering a glimpse into the meticulous planning and design that shaped this stunning residence.
Conceptualizing the Project
The journey of “Clearness and Serenity” began with a clear client brief: the family needed a spacious, functional home that catered to the mother’s heavy kitchen use and capitalized on the expansive views from their high-floor penthouse. The design aimed to create a harmonious living environment by transforming the two children’s rooms into compact bunk bed spaces and merging a small kitchen with a bedroom to form a large, open-plan kitchen. This redesign maximized the common areas, ensuring that the entire family could enjoy a comfortable and spacious home.
Selecting the Design Elements
Yuan Gallery’s designers enjoyed significant creative freedom in crafting “Clearness and Serenity,” resulting in a unique blend of minimalist and luxurious aesthetics. Classic Cassina furniture, including elegant sofas and chairs, was selected for its beauty and subtlety. The use of custom-made wooden items throughout the space, including a gracefully rounded custom wooden table, contributed to a cohesive and refined look. The design strategically avoided sharp corners to enhance safety and add a graceful, flowing touch to the interiors.
Design and Planning
The design process involved careful planning to address both aesthetic and functional needs. One of the most striking features of the project is the integration of a large structural beam into a shaped ceiling that connects the foyer and living room. To counteract the beam’s potential oppressiveness, a stretch ceiling design was used, incorporating air vents and illumination to transform the beam’s low point into a design feature.
In the study area, a bespoke wooden shelf with edge panels echoing the ceiling’s curves serves as a distinctive focal point. This design not only enhances the visual appeal but also adds practical functionality with a small platform for displaying trinkets. The attention to detail extends to hidden storage solutions, including a humidity-controlled pantry in the kitchen, catering to the family’s specific needs for storing dried goods and brewing plum wine.
Creating the Artworks and Furnishings
The creation of “Clearness and Serenity” involved selecting materials and techniques that complemented the project’s minimalist and understated luxury style. Custom-made furniture and carefully crafted details were central to achieving a harmonious and sophisticated space. For the children’s rooms, safety was paramount; local artist-designed iron windows featuring the children’s drawings combined safety with aesthetic appeal. Each bunk bed room was designed with ample storage, large windows, and comfortable spaces, ensuring both functionality and comfort.
Installation and Display
The installation process for “Clearness and Serenity” was meticulous, focusing on ensuring that each element was positioned to enhance the overall design. The gallery’s team skillfully integrated all design features, including the rounded corners of the custom wooden table and the flexible sliding door pieces in the bunk bed rooms. The terrace’s private open-air bath, featuring a steel bathtub with a teak cover that doubles as an outdoor table, exemplifies the project’s commitment to blending luxury with practical design.
Challenges and Solutions
Throughout the project, Yuan Gallery faced and overcame several challenges. Unforeseen obstacles, such as spatial limitations and the need for custom solutions, were met with innovative approaches. The use of custom furniture and design adaptations addressed these challenges, demonstrating the team’s ability to adapt and innovate under pressure. These solutions ensured that the final design met the highest standards of both functionality and aesthetics.
Reception and Impact
“Clearness and Serenity” has been celebrated for its elegant, personalized design, reflecting the essence of minimalist luxury. The project’s atmosphere changes throughout the day, offering an open, bright environment during the day and a serene, glowing ambiance at night. This versatility highlights the project’s core concept and contributes to its recognition in the industry.
