The twin buildings of this complex along the Touquian river in Hsin Chu, Taiwan is oriented east. The lush green lawns and strategically placed trees in the pocket gardens at the four corners of the complex add rhythm and openness to the site. Hedge planting defines the boundaries of this residential complex, quietly buffering it from the street. The interior décor is a muted palette of earthy tones and simple, elegant furniture and fittings that accentuates the idea of subtle luxury. The addition of lush vertical greening throughout the interior also retains the warmth and intimacy of the elegant space.
