Leave a Space for Mess

A living area deliberately kept messy within a hotel-style residence. The overall space maintains hotel standards—clear countertops, hidden storage, uniform materials; but one area is allowed to be cluttered: perhaps one end of a kitchen island, a corner of a study desk, or a separate utility room, where ongoing activities are present—spread-out documents, charging devices, children's art supplies, mail to be processed. The location of this area is chosen: it is blocked from the main line of sight by a low wall or cabinet. Because of this outlet, the rest of the space can be maintained. The image simultaneously shows the tidiness from the main view and that corner when viewed from around the obstruction. Avoid: having the cluttered area appear in the main line of sight, depicting the entire space as flawless, making the cluttered area appear dirty, omitting the obstruction.

一個飯店感住宅裡刻意保留的生活區。整體維持飯店的規格——檯面淨空、收納隱藏、材質統一;但其中有一處是被允許雜亂的:可能是廚房中島的一端、書房桌面的一角、或一個獨立的家事間,那裡有正在進行的東西——攤開的文件、充電中的設備、孩子的畫具、待處理的信件。這個區域的位置經過選擇:從主要的視線看過去被一段矮牆或櫃體擋住。因為有了這個出口,其餘的空間才維持得住。畫面同時呈現主視角的整潔與繞過去之後的那一角。避免:讓雜亂的區域出現在主要視線上、把整個空間畫成完美無瑕、讓雜亂的區域顯得髒污、省略遮擋的處理。
