Type St Small Living
Type St Small Living is the renovation and interior design of a 33 square meter one bedroom apartment. The apartment also serves as an office during the day. An inserted timber box runs the full length of the plan and holds the kitchen, bathroom, laundry, entry foyer, a small cellar and the dining area. The remaining living room and bedroom are white and simple. Folding and sliding elements, including a hidden desk and a table that unfolds for two to four people, appear and disappear as needed. The intent is a minimal interior that stays warm and practical.
Type St Small Living Apartment Design by Jack Chen was highlighted as a grand example of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Type St Small Living Apartment Design was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2020. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design recognition program which recognizes superior design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
