Modern design is all about bringing together form and function in the best possible manner. Located in a historical neighborhood of downtown Taipei, designers at Ganna Studio had to work around several existing constraints to create this fabulous apartment. Bringing together the coziness of a home and the comfort of a complete home studio, the apartment incorporates certain sleek design solutions to accommodate all the necessary features in the limited space avilable. Sporting a modest living space, comfortable bedroom, contemporary kitchen, dining area and an elegant outdoor garden, the place does pack quite a punch.

The real show stopper though is the elaborate office area that houses a large wooden desk which makes a spacious work station for four. Neatly hidden away behind beautifully designed swivel doors that only reveal the interior when necessary, the home office seems to vanish when not in use! Connected to both the dining space and the bedroom on the others side, it showcases smart use of space coupled with sleek and savvy design.

Plush wooden tones and stone dominate much of the interior. While the apartment is not blessed with plenty of room, the large sliding glass doors opening up into the cool garden area lend it with adequate openness. A storage room and small bathroom complete this dexterous apartment that seems to transform within the blink of an eyelid. Lovely pendant and scone lighting further saves up on leg room even as a large storage unit in the office area stacks all the necessary supplies tidily.
