The River is Everywhere Placid Place

The River is Everywhere

The River is Everywhere is a residential interior design for a 200-square-metre apartment in Taipei City. The design draws on the nearby river and on the theme of a spiritual journey. The entry ceiling was remodelled into a smooth curved line. Layered openings on the living room partition walls cast shadows that recall trees seen from a river. Plaster surfaces were finished by hand to give the open plan a clean and bright quality. A bespoke dining counter of marble and plastic sheet with a curved mirror leg stands at the centre of the space.

The River is Everywhere Placid Place by Kai-Hung Yang has been selected as a creative example of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. The River is Everywhere Placid Place was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2022. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design prize which rewards outstanding design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
