Impressions of the City
Office for JR Interior Design
This case is an old-fashioned apartment in the cultural and educational district of the city center. Although the location is excellent and has stunning natural lighting on both sides, it is not easy to use due to the old condition of the house, the long and narrow floor, and the single floor of only 22m2. The designer brought different contemporary functional requirements and thinking about space use with professional ingenuity, integrated into the existing buildings with design methods, and transformed the idle miniature single-family buildings into the office of a design company.

Unique Properties
The facade along the long street is designed with a collage of white wave boards and stained glass bricks, which maintains indoor privacy and retains lighting while simultaneously creating a beautiful visual memory point. The overall white tone, bright and lively, with a sense of design, becomes a dazzling punch in landmark in the community. The multicolor tiled glass brick wall creates a strong visual sense, becomes the focus of the conference room with light, and adds a finishing touch to the refined interior with bright colors.

Production Technology
The exterior is made of off-white washed stone walls, transparent glass brick low walls, gardens and facades co-constructed with sandblasted walls, supplemented by hexagonal collage floor tiles to echo the company's logo, and natural light from the foggy sunshade. Embellishments add pleasant greenery and create white, minimalist corners for old urban streetscapes.
Design Challenge
Although the location is excellent and has stunning natural lighting on both sides, it is not easy to use due to the old condition of the house, the long and narrow floor, and the single floor of only 22 square meters.
Project Duration
The project finished in August 2021 in Taipei City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow
The first floor is continuing the style of simplicity as the keynote outside the house. Soft colors penetrate specially painted walls, ceilings, marble conference tabletops and seats to strengthen the professionalism and consistency of the space. At the main office, bright colors are combined with translucent sliding doors and reeded glass partitions to create a more transparent visual extension, amplifying the perception experience of narrow spaces in the office area.
Research
The overall planning starts with the movement of the space and lighting, hoping to create a professional and comfortable place for work and negotiation. According to different functional attributes, the welcome area, meeting room, office area, tea area, dressing room and supervisor's office are distributed on the first to third floors. Through the rearrangement of circulation and structure, the possibility of space reuse is reversed, and a beautiful scene in the old alley is created simultaneously.
Inspiration
Faced with this predicament, the designer brought different contemporary functional requirements and thinking about space use with professional ingenuity, integrated into the existing buildings with design methods, and transformed the idle miniature single-family buildings into the office of a design company.
