Project Overview

In the past, most of the apartments in the city are built according to the original space configurations. Nowadays, however, most spaces cannot meet the requirements in real life. This project is the 30-pin residence where lives a single lady. Because the client is living alone, the original configuration is remodeled so that the new interior design can meet the client’s life style.
