 Pianist’s

在台北市中心，為旅居上海的鋼琴家夫妻打造一處靜謐優雅的私人住所。概念的發展從基地最中心的樓梯開始成形，除了是一座串連垂直空間的通道，也是回應音樂與建築的雕塑。在這裡，彙整了室內所運用的材料和色彩，用量體的組合表現「節奏」，用線條的流串表現「旋律」，空間中所感受到的韻律鋪陳得以暗喻「音樂與建築之間的關聯性」。結構與線條的流串除了垂直向上發展，也嘗試往慣性之外的方向延伸，試圖創造空間中一些意想不到的畫面，不太合理卻意外合適。

Amid the bustle of the center of Taipei, this private residence was created for a pair of pianists as a serene and elegant retreat. The concept takes form from the staircase at the very heart of the site — not only a vertical passage that connects the spaces, but also a sculptural response to the dialogue between music and architecture. Here, the interior’s materials and colors are gathered and transformed: volumes are composed to express rhythm, and lines stream through the space as melody, allowing the spatial dialogue to suggest the connection between music and architecture. Beyond its vertical ascent, the structure and flowing lines are guided toward unexpected directions, creating scenes that feel unforeseen, yet surprisingly harmonious.
