Mission
Educational Project
Residential Design| Fall 2022
The concept of the Microhome focuses on maximizing the footprint as much as possible because the space is limited. Multifunction space is the central core value of the design solution for the clients. By incorporating multifunction furniture and customization, the client can have privacy and be free from interference and intrusion while enjoying the comforts and functionality of a small living space.
Vision
The design focus on maximizing the space without making the space feel cluster and overwhelming. The consistency in color scheme, minimalist, and open-space layout define the client’s need. Earth color schemes with red wood tone floor and furniture as the focal point with neutral color walls brings the unity, relaxing atmosphere into the space.
