Modelled after traditional Japanese inns, the home exudes beauty in simplicity.
Designed by Littlemore Interior Design, every space in this 631-square-foot house at Hoi Pa Resite Village is well defined while connected intimately to each other. The general tone of the apartment is composing of two tones of wood and a spectrum of neutral earthy colours, with a pinch of Japanese minimalist touches. Making use of the ground floor location, the foyer is designed like a Genkan of a traditional Japanese house: shoes can be taken off and well placed before entering the living spaces.
The kitchen located at the core gives everyone a warm welcome when they come back home, with a modernised Izakaya-looking bar counter. The kid’s area has a fully openable shoji doors, sunlight gently brightening up the space for most of the day. This platformed area is slightly set back from the main spaces and can easily be transformed into a nice comfy snugging spot with the shoji doors closed.
A big multi-function platform is arranged by the largest window of the house. It can be a casual work station, the playground for the parents to have their family moments with the children, or a place for the couple to enjoy a relaxing afternoon with a cup of tea. Overlooking calm and serene view through the huge glass window, it is where the users can connect with the peaceful outdoor setting.
