Live with Benevolence
Live with Benevolence is a residential interior design for a 150 square meter rooftop home. The project is the renovation of an old house, with the layout and function re-arranged for retirement living. A new layer of thermal insulation is paved on the roof, and LOW-E glass is used for the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. Cellular shades and flower stands further reduce direct sunlight and heat. An existing architectural concrete wall is polished and coated to preserve the memory it carries. An organic vegetable garden on the rooftop lowers the temperature and supplies crops.
Live with Benevolence Residential Space by Hsu Fu Chu was selected as an outstanding illustration of architectural design by the A' Design Awards. Live with Benevolence Residential Space was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2021. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design award which honors superior design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
