Inspired by the owners’ two cats who love basking in the sun, Jeff Weng of 2 Book Design focused on opening up the space and maximising natural light when transforming this once dark, run-down apartment in Taipei City. On request from the owners, Weng kept the colour palette and material choice deliberately simple and minimalist, opting to use a combination of mineral coating and wood laminate. By reducing the size and bulkiness of the existing mezzanine, the light and view from the original large window can now be shared by both levels, whilst a new metal truss staircase, with a multifunctional storage cabinet as its base, increases the lightness and transparency of the space. With its considered and pared-back design, IT’s house is distraction-free, clutter-free, calm and perfectly suited to both the humans and cats who live there.
