About Vigorousness Residential House
Vigorousness is a residential interior design of 280 square meters in Taipei, Taiwan. The entrance uses a grid pattern that recalls the image of Chinese arches. Screens and bookcase doors combine traditional Chinese hand woven bamboo with western ironwork. The bamboo sticks are woven with cotton ropes at intervals of 3 millimeters and fixed in frames made of titanium plated stainless steel pipe. Cabinet doors are 2.9 meters high, close to the local floor height of 3 meters, which strengthens the sense of space. Black, white, indigo and blue recall traditional ink landscape painting.

Under the restrictions of the floor height of Taiwan apartment buildings, the magnificent Chinese style is to be reflected. - Project Duration
- The project finished in October 2019 in Taipei, Taiwan.
- Inspiration
- With more than 5,000 years of history and humanities, the Chinese style has the exquisite and irresistible charm. Abiding by the principle of "emphasis on meaning instead of form," the designer uses the basic colors of Chinese traditional paintings in splash ink landscapes which are the black, white, indigo and blue, as the color of Chinese style elements. Further, the combination with details such as iron pieces and lighting provides the overall space with both Chinese as well as modern sense.
