HOW HOW LIVING PROJECT LAB

- Designed by Inheressen­ce Design Studio (Taiwan)

The designers redefine the essence of a villa in How How Living Project Lab. By installing a transforma­tive tilting roof, essential resources such as wind, light, water, and greenery are harnessed and integrated into an environmen­tally-friendly living space.

The latest technologi­es are installed to generate electrical power from sunlight, heat, and wind. Such factors lead the design strategy and building layout, forming a lifestyle centered around co-existence with the Nature.

The tree at the center of the space is also a core element. Two multifunct­ional, sunken platforms beside the tree can be raised to use as a bench, table, stage, or games table.

The central yard, with the tree and sunken platforms, bridges the exterior and the interior, and serves as a place for meditation and interactio­n with the tree.

As for decoration and furnishing, the designers attempt to redefine the meaning of furniture. A custom table, which can extend from 240cm to 400cm, defines the dining space, while a custom sofa defines the living space. The designers believe that all furniture has the ability to adapt and transform the space it occupies.
