Metaphors of Life
Metaphors of Life is a residential apartment interior design with an area of 198.348 square meters. The project combines two houses into one, so the spatial layout was planned again from the start. The public space holds the lounge, the dining room and the study, and dark tones are used throughout. A large French window widens the view and brings the urban scenery indoors. The lounge and the study share one axis, so the functions remain continuous. A television wall separates the foyer from the dining room while keeping the areas visually connected.
Metaphors of Life Residential Apartment by Chia Mien Chang has been selected as a grand example of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Metaphors of Life Residential Apartment received the Iron A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2020. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design prize which recognizes excellent design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
