Most apartments typically rely on partition walls to define spaces such as the kitchen, study, and bedrooms. Representing a partition experiment, this project aims to redefine residence by eliminating conventional cement walls. Started from scratch, this apartment was only structured with beams and columns and crafted spatial partitions from thin 5mm steel. The four circular partitions distinguish between work and rest areas, fostering a new conversation between the living and spaces. This steel-forged, partition system holistically shapes a flowy screen-like structure.
At the entrance, a three-meter-long table provides two-way purposes, divided by a curved partition: the inner side functions as a home office, while the outer side serves as a dining table, giving a fluid transition between work and quiet areas. Though no clear lines demarcate between spaces, the varying heights of the partitions define functions, reshaping a seamless connection between the interior and exterior spaces. Without floor-to-ceiling blockades, the design offers an airy, fluid environment that preserves both openness and intimacy.
While the interior embraces a minimalist aesthetic, every corner has been thoughtfully equipped and considered. In response to daily living needs, a welded steel rod runs alongside the steel partition, serving as a versatile railing—such as a bookshelf or walk-in closet support. This minimalist approach not only enhances visual coherence but significantly reduces material usage. Approximately 80% of the construction materials involved steelwork, including steel wires, rods, and plates, which not only shortening the construction timeline but minimizing construction waste.
REMARKS:
Nowadays, as the apartments are built with smaller interior spaces in Asia, the sense of confinement and lack of daylighting have become challenging that most designers strive to conquer. Therefore, we consider this project as a ‘partition experiment,’ removing the typical partition walls and reimaging a new living form instead of relying on solid cement walls.
