Whispers of Light Residential House

Whispers of Light

Whispers of Light is a residential interior design for an apartment of 129 square meters in Taipei. Public areas are placed at the center, while private rooms are set on the left and right sides. The layout reduces disturbance between family members with different daily schedules. Soft gray and white tones, mineral paint and wood veneer create a layered effect inspired by watercolor painting. A large structural beam is covered with mirrored metal panels and rounded corners, and the space below the beam serves as a hallway.

Whispers of Light Residential House by Chou-Chun, Kao has been highlighted as an outstanding example of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Whispers of Light Residential House received the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2025. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design prize that recognizes excellent design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
