"A curve spontaneously penetrates the entire space, picturing a story line engraved with the memory and life of its residents. The chalkboard painting side is like the diary of a traveler who loves recording his or her journey," says the firm.

Open shelves installed over a window allow light to pass through and create a reading nook in the corner of the dining area.
