一个充满欢乐和美味的无限空间
对于有孩子的年轻已婚夫妇来说,他们过去经常光顾的市中心的咖啡馆和小酒馆往往成为禁区。但是对于这对刚刚开始体验为人父母的痛苦的夫妇来说,他们对一个可以让他们的孩子的笑声和他们心爱的雅皮士生活方式共存的栖息地的渴望仍然很强烈。卢卡斯和凯莉在高雄的房子体现了育儿和浪漫亲密关系之间的完美平衡。

A Boundless Space of Joy and Delectable Delights
For young married couples with kids, the downtown cafes and bistros they used to frequent often become no-go zones. But for this pair, who were just beginning to experience the travails of parenthood, the desire for a habitat where their children’s laughter and their beloved yuppie lifestyle may coexist was still strong. Lucas and Kelly’s house in Kaohsiung exemplifies the perfect balance between child-rearing and romantic intimacy.

以家庭为中心的生活方式之美
卢卡斯和凯莉都热衷于烹饪;这对夫妇在海外旅行时认识。现在,他们结婚后有了两个可爱的女儿,决定在高雄定居。孩子们还在学龄前,这就是为什么在设计构思的最初阶段,这对夫妇要求有一个开放式的厨房,这样他们在厨房里做饭的时候就可以看到孩子们在客厅里的全部活动。客厅作为他们孩子的指定游戏空间,配备了懒人风格的沙发和降低高度的家具,如低矮的圆形咖啡桌,使整体视觉更加通透。天花板上的木质网格板作为简单、和谐的空间隔断。当孩子们长大后,隔断下面的空间将为他们提供一个类似图书馆的阅读空间。框住并反映这个幸福家庭的日常生活方式的窗户也是这个扩展空间设计的主要特征。每当家庭成员踏进家门,他们的视线就会自动停留在宽大的窗户所提供的令人愉悦的景观上。舒适的内置窗边座椅意味着卢卡斯可以在欣赏城市风景时稍作休息,无论雨天还是晴天,而凯莉也可以带着她的电脑躲进这个舒适的空间,享受写作和自酿咖啡的悠闲下午。

The Beauty of a Family-Oriented Lifestyle
Lucas and Kelly are both passionate about cooking; the couple met while travelling overseas. Now, married with two adorable daughters, they decided to settle down in Kaohsiung. The kids are still pre-school age, which was why at the initial stages of design conception, the couple requested an open kitchen so they could have a full view of the kids’ living room activities while making meals in the kitchen. The living room, which serves as their children’s designated play space, is furnished with lazybones style sofas and furniture items with reduced heights such as low, round coffee tables to give the overall vision more of permeability. Wooden grid paneling on the ceiling serve as simple, harmoniously detailed spatial partition. When the children grow older, the space below the partition will provide them with a library- like reading space. The windows that frame and reflect the everyday lifestyle of this happy family are also a main feature of this extended spatial design. Each time a family member steps into the home, their line of sight will automatically rest upon the pleasing landscape afforded by the large, expansive window. The comfortable built-in window seat means that Lucas can lounge a little while enjoying a view of the city, rain or shine, while Kelly may also tuck into the cozy space with her computer and enjoy a leisurely afternoon of writing and home-brewed coffee.

通过烹饪和餐饮建立一个幸福的家
厨房和饭厅无疑是整个家庭的核心和灵魂。这对夫妇都是热爱烹饪的人,他们经常并肩准备家庭膳食。根据他们的个性,我们在厨房岛和后墙的设计中采用了微妙的现代风格,用黑色马赛克瓷砖铺设,与灰色的白面混凝土涂层天花板颜色相协调,所有这些都散发着一种风凉的感觉。高大的天蓝色木纹橱柜被插入,以配合混凝土表面的斯堪的纳维亚吊灯,为空间注入了一点温暖。延伸的木桌让人联想到一幅画布,静静地补充着每道美味佳肴的鲜艳色彩。厨房和餐厅的结构都采用了各种蓝色渐变的材料,创造出一种强烈的空间动态感。例如,通向阳台的厨房门是由穿孔板制成的,上面可以挂上S形的钩子,以适应厨具的展示。穿孔既是通风,又是储存,这种设计同时具有实用性和美观性。

Building a Blissful Home Through Cooking and Dining
The kitchen and dining rooms are undoubtedly the heart and soul of the entire household. Both being passionate cooks, the couple often prepares family meals side by side. Based on their personalities, we employed a subtle, modern contemporary style in our design of the kitchen island and back wall, paving them with black mosaic tiles to color-coordinate with the grey ceilings of fair-faced concrete coating, all of which exude a sense of wintry coolness. Tall sky-blue wood grain cabinets were inserted to match the concrete surface Scandinavian chandelier and imbue the space with a little warmth. The extended wooden table is reminiscent of a stretch of canvas that quietly complements the vibrant colors of each delectable dish. Both kitchen and dining are structured with a variety of materials in gradations of blue that create a strong sense of spatial dynamic. For instance, the kitchen door that leads to the balcony is made out of a perforated board from which S-shaped hooks can be hung to accommodate kitchenware display. The perforation serves as both ventilation and storage, a design that is at the same time practical and aesthetically pleasing.

创意活动的秘密基地
为了帮助孩子们培养他们的创造力,我们在整个家里创造了秘密的藏身之处,以便孩子们可以自由地从事创造性的项目。其中包括门厅里的乐高画,它鼓励孩子们尝试拼贴,增强他们对色彩的敏感性。在客厅里,我们还设置了一面黑板墙,在上面画了可爱的卡通人物,吸引他们的注意力,激发他们绘画和涂鸦。儿童房没有采用大多数父母为满足年幼女儿而选择的通常的粉红色,而是采用了蓝色、绿色和黄色等充满活力的中性颜色的门和柜子,这些色调与水泥墙的低调灰色完美搭配。这个空间很有趣,色彩斑斓,同时又让人感到平静和安宁。衣柜内部是特殊形状的抽屉和架子,给空间带来有趣的视觉效果。这些设计不仅满足了孩子们在不同阶段的所有存储需求,而且还让他们有机会通过个人物品的安排来表达自己。随着他们年龄的增长,这个小城堡也将转变为一个充分反映其居民风格和个性的空间。同时,卢卡斯和凯莉,我们完全可以想象,在深夜里,他们仍然会在厨房里,忙着把葡萄酒和最喜欢的零食摆在一起,这是一个完美的家庭住宅最美丽的风景之一。

A Secret Base for Creative Activities
To help the children cultivate their creativity, we create secret hide-outs across the home so the kids could engage in creative projects in freedom. These include the Lego painting in the foyer, which encourages the children to try their hand at collage and enhances their sensitivity toward color. In the living room we also set up a wall of blackboard, on which we drew cute cartoon characters that attract their attention and inspire them to draw and doodle. The children’s room, instead of the usual pink chosen by most parents to satisfy their young daughters, features doors and cabinets painted in vibrant, neutral colors of blue, green and yellow, shades that work perfectly with the muted grey of the concrete walls. The space is fun, colorful and at the same time calming and serene. Inside the wardrobe are specially-shaped drawers and shelves that give the space interesting visual effects. These designs not only satisfy all the storage needs at different phases of the children’s lives, but also give them the opportunity to express themselves via the arrangements of their personal belongings. As they grow older, this tiny castle will also transform into a space that fully reflects the styles and personalities of its inhabitants. Meanwhile, Lucas and Kelly, as we can fully imagine, will still be in the kitchen late at night, busy putting together a feast of wine and favorite snacks, one of the most beautiful sights of a perfect family home.
