Description(English)	"Not compromising on space, but crafting it for people, rather than adapting to poorly functional designs." Stepping into the living room, the sleek folding doors conceal ample storage space. Considering the dining area as a favored family gathering spot and the first area visible upon entry, the dining table and chairs are ergonomically lowered to human-scale proportions. Outside, tree shadows blend with the warm-toned paint and walnut wood accents, infusing the space with a natural feel. On the left, a hammock hangs, gently swaying like a leafy skiff. As the projection screen descends, it sets the stage for a cinematic relaxation journey.
Description(Native)	「不委曲求全於空間，空間要為人打造，而非適應不好用的設計。」 玄關與廚房相鄰，相連著工作陽台，緊密的動線中鋪展相同的地磚，讓落塵區之家務打理路徑更佳完善。一入門即以一家四口的生活習慣為思考，因家人衣量較多，特別打造大衣櫃及鞋櫃，穿鞋椅以一道沿上兜轉的圓弧，由胡桃木襯在浮現影跡的大地色折門之間，突顯了份量感，使歸返於入門後，感受心緒沉著安定。進入到客廳，映入眼中開闊的格局，旁邊的折門中擁有強大儲物空間，並俐落化所有立面線條，可以使家景更形簡化，同時考量餐廳是一家人喜歡久待區域，以及開門即見的地方，故將餐桌椅依據人體工學尺度降低高度，拉開視覺開闊感，讓窗外落羽松綠廊帶入家中，與屋內暖色的油漆底調與胡桃木色相襯，流動著自然系質感。左側懸吊一式布織吊床，像是一葉小舟緩緩搖曳，投影布幕落下，便可展開一場電影休憩之旅。
