Flow Reef

The project is divided into two, defining the social and private areas. The flooring is changed from marble to solid wood, implicitly defining the boundary between the living room and the dining room. The colors in the living room are gradually brightened, bringing the city views and bright sunlight into the interior, while the curved ceiling and indirect lighting strips form a smooth and soft atmosphere. The soft curves of the waves are shown on the curved line of the wall.

The famous Koch Curve is a classic fragmentation paradigm. It is a series of equilateral triangles that are constructed and stacked in complexity to emphasize the symmetry and beauty of nature. The project is inspired by seeds and shapes the spatial silhouette with arcs. The designer conveys endless variety in the uncomplicated curves, allowing the three-dimensional space to express a close connection to the exploration of nature.

Guided by this philosophy, the designer took into account factors such as spatial proportions and viewing angles, reconstructing and deconstructing the space.
