The project is a customized renovation based on the owner's preference for the Japanese Zen style. The name, "Urban Zen," implies the positioning of the home in relation to the outside. The designers took the iconic wood patterns and totems of Zen to create an elegant and harmonious attitude. Japanese elements can be found on every facade, such as the sequential grilles or the delicate pattern of the windows. The project combines the coziness and ease of home, and the leisurely pace of life is imbued with the casual style of Japanese Yukimi.

Plain colors let in clear daylight. The open social area has an unobstructed view. The built-in cabinet allows one to see the cat. The pace of the city is slowed down by the space. The designers blended the view from the windows, the atmosphere inside, and the hearts of the residents to provide the owners with their own Zen-style home.
