The sense of distance between openness and privacy is carefully calibrated throughout this residence. At the center of the design is a system of foldable woven wooden screens that serves as a key spatial interface, allowing the relationship between the communal and private areas to remain fluid while enabling the space to open, filter, or gently withdraw in response to different moments of everyday life.



Warm timber, muted grey cabinetry, woven surfaces, leather, and low-saturation flooring come together to form a residential expression that is restrained, grounded, and quietly layered. Rather than relying on decorative excess to create atmosphere, the design draws on the relationship between proportion, light, materiality, and negative space to establish an interior that feels calm, complete, and enduring.



The living room, dining area, and kitchen are planned as a continuous domestic core, allowing circulation, interaction, and visual flow to unfold naturally. This arrangement not only strengthens the internal connection of the home, but also allows everyday life to take place with greater ease and clarity. The private spaces extend the same material and spatial language, enabling the residence to be experienced as a coherent and unified whole.



What the project seeks is not an amplified sense of form, but a spatial condition in which flexibility, order, and quietness can coexist in daily life. Through refined boundary treatment, a restrained material vocabulary, and a clear spatial rhythm, the residence allows light, distance, and everyday living to settle naturally into place.
