Unfolding
Unfolding is a residential interior design located on the twenty-third floor of a building in New Taipei City, Taiwan. The plan covers 150 square meters and follows the panoramic view as its main axis. The reading room is opened toward the living area, so the two spaces form a flexible, courtyard-like core. The dining area and the kitchen extend the same open boundary, which adults, children and pets can share. Stone, iron, wood, glass, leather and textile are combined with careful detailing to create a calm and warm atmosphere.
Unfolding Residential House by Chienting Chen was identified as an exceptional example of architectural design by the A' Design Awards. Unfolding Residential House earned the Iron A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2020. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design competition that recognizes outstanding design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
