Optical Fibers: Redefining Urban Residence

Yu-Wen Wang's Optical Fibers project redefines urban residence with its emphasis on natural light and shadows, creating a dynamic modern art piece. The public areas, including the living room, study, and dining room, are seamlessly connected without partitions, fostering a clear and bright ambience. The design utilizes special methods such as the establishment of French casements and the combination of different materials to broaden the visual effects of the public area.

The main concept of the house revolves around the interplay of lights and shadows. The living room, study, and dining room are strategically positioned to enhance the visual and functional aspects of the space. The use of white, grey, wood, and stone as the key vision elements contributes to the modest ambience of the house, creating a harmonious blend of modernity and simplicity.

Utilizing a combination of stone, metal, and wood materials, the TV wall is designed to establish a flourish feeling, complemented by the starry galaxy grey base and titanium plated metal. The warm emotion is introduced through wooden cabinets, balancing the overall atmosphere of the space.

The study's display wall is meticulously planned, incorporating perfect proportions, wood materials, deck ornaments, and black spray paints to create delightful visual effects. The hollow cabinets are designed with a staggered method of virtuality and reality, enhancing the overall visual appeal of the space.

The design concept of the case is the scenery and sunlight. Under the premise of having large window scenery, the designer hopes that the public domain can be presented in a transparent and natural way. Instead of covering the field with a hard wall, it conceptually distinguishes each other's functions. Moreover, the living room, study, and kitchen have been maintained with an open vision. Also, the dissimilar materials between the fields join and echo each other such as the TV wall reflects the display cabinets, and the sofa faces the living room and kitchen.

One of the significant challenges faced during the design process was the inherent configuration of the building, which posed construction problems. The low beam-columns in the bedroom created a sense of oppression, which was addressed by planning the ceiling in an inclined shape to hide the beam-columns and embedding strip lights into it. Straight lines were used to raise the visual effects, removing the pressure of the beams and pillars, ensuring the overall space doesn't fall into monotonous cliches.

By utilizing lines and sunlight, the designer has outlined the mansion with different materials, creating a low-key luxury residence. The interlaced display cabinets in the study have extended into the kitchen, and the wooden ceiling at the entrance has spanned the corridors of the public domain, creating a seamless visual experience throughout the space.
