I have paid special attention <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> materials I will be using,<br />

since specific materials can bring a certain feel <strong>to</strong> a space.<br />

For example, I will be using frosted glass for <strong>the</strong> bathroom<br />

walls <strong>and</strong> door. <strong>The</strong> bathrooms are <strong>the</strong> only places in th<strong>is</strong><br />

apartment that need privacy, but <strong>the</strong> matte fin<strong>is</strong>h glass will<br />

allow <strong>the</strong> outline <strong>of</strong> a person in <strong>the</strong> bathroom be seen from<br />

o<strong>the</strong>r spaces <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> apartment. No details will be v<strong>is</strong>ible, just<br />

<strong>the</strong> overall shadow <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> body, creating an interaction <strong>of</strong><br />

spaces <strong>and</strong> bodies. In th<strong>is</strong> way, even a human-made material<br />

can arouse emotion.<br />

Most <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> furniture used in th<strong>is</strong> apartment will be moveable,<br />

since I want <strong>the</strong> resident <strong>and</strong> v<strong>is</strong>i<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>to</strong> interact with<br />

each piece <strong>and</strong> move <strong>the</strong>m according <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir needs. For<br />

example, <strong>the</strong> client’s working desk will have wheels <strong>to</strong> make<br />

it easier for him <strong>to</strong> move <strong>and</strong> find <strong>the</strong> perfect light <strong>and</strong> mood<br />

for work.<br />
