Entry DescriptionThis project is for a house built in the serene natural surroundings of mountains and rivers. The building is over 100 meters long and narrow, featuring four levels divided by three staircases, accommodating the varying elevation of the site. It includes an atelier and gallery, a pool, a garage, and a reception room. The dimmable and color-tunable linear lighting, along with recessed, indirect, and pendant lights, seamlessly integrates with the architecture to enhance the space, while spotlights flexibly adapt to changes in display settings. The entire interior and exterior are controlled by a preset dimming system, allowing for lighting effects tailored to the seasons and various purposes.
Sustainability ApproachBy using the preset dimming system, it is possible to select the appropriate scene according to the intended use, creating a lighting environment that suits one's lifestyle. Energy-efficient lighting has been adopted.
