This project is located in Jiangbeizui, Chongqing.
It is a super-high-rise apartment with an overall area of 120 ㎡.
The homeowner envisions a tranquil retreat, providing comfort for the body and mind after a demanding day.
It was originally a pocket apartment that has daylight exposure in only one direction.
Natural light gets weak after passing through the balcony.
The 6.5-meter shear wall divides the space into two. All the three bathrooms are windowless.
The super-high-rise building structure sets limitations for layout ideas, which we mostly adapt to,
such as utilizing the shear wall to separate the space into the inner area and the outer area,
defining the right section as bedroom and supporting space, and the left section as shared space.
Two bathrooms in the bedroom area are combined into one,
which now features an open structure to increase spatial permeability.
The L-shaped half-height partition harbors the sliding door of the washing space and the bedroom.
Exploring the notions of "adaptation" and "innovation " not being confined by inherent concepts.
Continuously seeking the balance between agility and restraint, the unity of function and form,
to craft an ideal dwelling for the client where they can relax both body and mind.
