Meiping by Essence Space Design

Essence Space Design, based in Taiwan, embodies the philosophy that essence transcends external appearance. Under the guidance of Lulu Cheng, the award-winning firm excels in residential architecture, interiors, and furnishings, viewing space design as an extension of lifestyle. Essence Space Design’s mission is to foster a harmonious dialogue between space, nature, and people, striving to reconnect space with the essence of life. 

One exemplary project that showcases their creative prowess is Meiping in Taichung City. Crafted for a retired businessman, this residence draws inspiration from his cherished collection of antique Ming Dynasty plum vases (Meiping). The design harmoniously blends modern living with subtle traditional Chinese elements, encapsulating the serene beauty of these classical artifacts. 

The Meiping project’s design narrative is deeply rooted in the elegant contours of the plum vase. Curved lines soften corners, creating fluidity throughout the space. Pink jade accents add a classical charm to the living room, while an arched TV wall blends Eastern colors with Western asymmetry for a modern twist. 

The dining area’s rounded ceiling symbolizes family unity, with warm light embracing the circular table. Subdued colors and natural materials create a tranquil atmosphere, enhanced by a touch of Chinese mystique. Every detail in Meiping is meticulously crafted, reflecting the traditional Chinese garden philosophy where “each step reveals a new scenery.”Japandi minimalism expands the space, and Kyara-iro accents elevate the jade white with sophistication. 

Essence Space Design seamlessly blends tradition and modernity to create living spaces that are both timeless and innovative.
