Inkwell
Residence for Lilin
The designers applied different materials of black to describe the artistry and used curves to realize the fluidity between areas. The rhythm of the lines and the layering of the space seem to weave a visual symphony in the quiet light and shadow. Dark stone walls and soft lighting lines outline the texture and depth of the field. The long sofa carries the extension of light, and the smooth ceiling design shows modern taste. The art pieces in the cabinet emphasize the owner's taste and life story.

Unique Properties
Ink-play images are presented in the slab tiles with stone texture. The natural flow of the texture is the focal point of the ink-play painting. It is a consistent element on the TV wall, cabinets, floors, and kitchen island. The stone texture has different densities, colors, and layers, creating a detailed and vivid picture, making the ink-colored space not monotonous. In addition to the fluidity of ink, another key element of ink-play imagery is 'blank space'. Just the right amount of blank space is the harmony between life and aesthetics.

Production Technology
Materials: slab tiles, matte suede paint, black glass, mirrors, wood grain, stone texture tiles, etc. The stone tiles cover the social area comprehensively. Matte suede paint and glossy black glass enhance the texture and depth of field and keep the dark colors from being too overwhelming. In the private area, wood grain is matched with black. The warm texture of the wood grain blends into the serene atmosphere to create a cozy home.
Design Challenge
The main challenge was to trim and integrate the large structural volumes. To maintain openness, the designers cleverly integrated the ceiling into the facade design through visual extension and blurred the intersections with smooth curves. This method effectively avoids cutting the space and enhances the flow and consistency. The ingenuity and strategy of the design make the overall space harmonious.
Project Duration
The project finished in September 2023 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow
The client is very pleased with the final look. He frequently invited friends to visit his new home and received favorable comments from them. Good interior design is not only about satisfying the owner's personal preferences and needs but also about successfully creating an ideal space for both privacy and socialization. In particular, a customized display cabinet showcasing the client's collection of Bearbricks conveys the designer's in-depth attention to detail and adds character and interest to the space.
Research
The client prefers darker colors, so the design team combined ink-play art imagery with appropriate blank space to delicately interpret the client's aesthetic pursuits. The space is transformed into a work of art, exuding a unique charm. The similarity between the texture of stone and ink creates a unified and profound design language. The entire space, from the TV wall and cabinets to the floor and kitchen island, is dynamic and vibrant. The blank space strikes the right balance between life and aesthetics.
Inspiration
During the initial consultation, the design team understood the client's preference for dark colors. 'Ink' represents the color symbolizing the scent of books and intellectualism, as well as the infinite variations and layers of color. On this basis, the design team incorporated ink-play art imagery and blank space to perfectly interpret the client's ideal home exquisitely and delicately. The project embodies the client's pursuit of aesthetics and makes the space a unique piece of art.
