About
Shih Hsin is a designer with an interdisciplinary background, currently focusing on furniture and spatial design. He aims to reveal the unfamiliar aspects of familiar things, inviting people to rediscover the things they have overlooked in their everyday lives.
The window embodies a longing, the table becomes a plan, walls represent contradictions, and doors extend invitations. The mental space serves as an extension of imagination, when it shrinks to dimensions smaller than the human body, does the potential for action and exploration persist? Can the mind still escape when confined within a space smaller than the human body? This project explores the possibility of living in a compact house where space shrinks smaller than the functionalities it needs to accommodate. The project deconstructs concepts of functional space (kitchen, living room, etc.) into smaller elements that fluidly traverse the available space. Only immovable objects remain anchored in their designated places, with the sink taking a central, immovable position similar to a plaza fountain. Acting as the focal point, life in this constrained space revolves around the sink, reshaping the dynamics and the demands of modern living.
