This project reinterprets North American neoclassical aesthetics within a contemporary Asian residence, balancing proportion, materiality, and cultural context. A refined 1 to 4 paneling system extends seamlessly into built in storage, while moisture resistant materials suit the climate of Taiwan. Curved ceiling treatments and layered lighting soften the space, guiding movement and enriching the spatial experience with subtle elegance.
