The Traveler's Room: Things Brought Back From Around the World

A study and living space composed of travel souvenirs. Objects are clearly from different regions: a Moroccan openwork copper lamp, a Turkish woven rug, Japanese pottery and woodblock prints, an Indian carved wooden door panel used as wall decor, African masks and drums, South American textiles and ceramic figures, Southeast Asian rattan and bronze ware. Their styles are unrelated, unified by three things: a large amount of dark wood furniture as a common background; colors concentrated in ochre, earthy yellow, and indigo; and every item bearing traces of real use and travel. The walls are dark, and the floor is layered with rugs. Lighting consists of several low-wattage lamps, with warm and uneven light. Avoid: using brand new mass-produced replicas, neatly arranging objects by country, losing color scheme unity, illuminating the space brightly and evenly.

一間由旅行紀念品構成的書房兼起居空間。物件明確來自不同地域:摩洛哥的鏤空銅燈、土耳其的織毯、日本的陶器與版畫、印度的木雕門板當成牆飾、非洲的面具與鼓、南美的織品與陶偶、東南亞的藤編與銅器。它們的風格互不相干,靠三件事統一:大量的深色木質家具作為共同的背景;色彩集中在赭紅、土黃與靛藍;以及每一件都帶有真實的使用與旅途痕跡。牆面是深色的,地面疊著地毯。照明是數盞低瓦數的燈,光線溫暖而不均勻。避免:使用全新的量產仿製品、把物件按國家分區整齊陳列、讓配色失去統一、把空間照得明亮均勻。
