Chu Chieh Liang Holiday Home Interior Sunday, 28 June 2026

Port

Port is a holiday home of 201.6 square meters in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, with a view over the harbour. The original two-bedroom layout was changed into three bedrooms so that family and friends can stay comfortably. A wardrobe serves as the wall between two bedrooms, which saves space, adds storage and reduces sound transmission. The living area offers three gathering places: a sofa zone, a dining table and a bar placed at opposite ends. A black tone, a grille ceiling and a black mirror under the beam reduce the visual weight of the low beams, while curved shapes soften the interior.
