As part of the restyling of the more than 30-floor residential building Dongzhimen 8, the project comprises 21 penthouses on the topmost seven floors of the building, with a unique design for three different residence types, combining a rich mix of textures and a selection of high-quality materials. The design of the apartments is accentuated by clear horizontal lines in the wooden wall paneling: the upper and lower edges of the window openings run through the entire apartment to visually elongate the space. The most compact residence, “FLAT A”, has been conceived as a yacht-like living space that is defined by an openness to its surroundings. Inspired by naval architecture, the design features inlaid parquet, and smooth rounded details.
