Project Overview
It is the design project of a residential sales center in a detached commercial building with commercial spaces. Unlike general buildings with wide indoor space, the building with the long-and-narrow base and the structural columns is apt to cause monotonous and oppressive sense.

Project Brief
The metal tassels and pendant lamps alongside the windows create the atmosphere resembling a window display. The contrast of metal and wooden textures brings out the distinguishing undertone. The columns decorated with mirrors and the metal tassels complement each other in skillfully alleviating the oppressive sense. The smooth and curved shapes are applied to the building volumes. The curved wood walls and hallways are the intriguing details of the design plan as well. The characteristics of space become warm and lively. The previous long and narrow indoor space has, therefore, been transformed into the smooth and elegant space by the interior design.
Project Innovation/Need
By the entrance, the round reception counter composed of the Apollo grey marbles and wire brushed wood veneers strengthens the contained feature of circle. The curved walls are continuously decorated from the entrance to the side area. The reception booths, in the side area, are as fascinatingly as a café. The ceilings and walls decorated with the curved wood veneers expose the sense of fluidity that is consistently congruous to the circular holes on the walls.
Design Challenge
To reverse these restrictions into advantages, we attempted to use the “circular and curved” method to neutralize the firm feature and to include the soft quality. We meanwhile endeavored to present a new sales center that simulates a scene and business in a futuristic commercial store. Distinct from most sales centers with conventional design models, this residential sales center is decorated with the wood veneers, metal tassels, and curved shapes. With these decoration materials, the indoor space reveals the smooth, relaxing, and fashionable features. The warm texture of woods and the smooth traffic flows have entirely changed the stereotypical impression on the regular real estate sales centers.
Sustainability
This project applied a massive amount of low-formaldehyde base materials to implement the core principles of sustainability and environmental protection, which fuses with the eco-friendly sustainability promoted at the present to accomplish the effect of energy reduction, persisting in the ideas of reuse, recycle and reduce, ensuring the quality of the construction materials with the control and evaluation of the fundamental as well as unique performances of the materials, thereby reducing the energy and resource consumption for material production.
