This grey-toned apartment is a project in Zhuwei, Tam.sui (Taiwan) with a floor area of 270 m2. The condo faces the estuary of Tamsui River and sits against Mt. Datun. The neighboring mangrove forest is a precious wetlands reserve, while the Guandu Bridge forms a conspicuous landmark. With geographic and cultural advantages, the designer is able to adopt an artistic perspective as the core value of the project. The explorative artistic creation and structural artistry allow the spatial design to influence the vitality of the space through the changes of light and shadow. Within the spatial structures, there are two walls designed with the techniques of fissures and twists used in paper cutting. While the sunlight pours onto the floor and walls as time flows, the space exhibits diverse changes and tension of life.

这个灰色调公寓是朱卫Tam.sui（台湾）的一个项目，建筑面积为270平方米。公寓面向Tambui河的河口，坐落在昆仑山。邻近红树林是一个珍贵的湿地保护区，古渡桥形成一个明显的地标。在地理和文化优势的基础上，设计师能够以艺术的视角作为项目的核心价值。探索性的艺术创作和结构艺术性使得空间设计能够通过灯光和阴影的变化来影响空间的活力。在空间结构中，有两个墙设计成用于剪纸的裂缝和扭曲的技术。当阳光照在地板和墙壁上时，随着时间的流逝，空间呈现出多样化的变化和生活的紧张。

In this space with such tension of life, the designer uses explorative artistic creation to instill more cultural elements into life. Blue Eye is inspired by the wetlands conservation; the work attempts to make people value and appreciate the preciousness of nature. Molding clay is used to create the undulating shapes resembling the geological features of wetland forests.

在这种紧张的生活空间中，设计师运用探索性的艺术创作，向生活中注入了更多的文化元素。蓝眼受到湿地保护的启发，它试图让人们珍惜和欣赏大自然的珍贵。模塑粘土是用来创造起伏的形状，类似于湿地森林的地质特征。

The creator uses multiple composition materials to picture the geological features and texture the builder could not see. “Blue” means ocean, and also implies the tears of the Earth. The work signifies the preciousness of nature; if we fail to protect it proactively, perhaps the next generation will only be able to learn about wetlands through data.

造物主使用多种合成材料来描绘建造者看不到的地质特征和纹理。“蓝色”的意思是海洋，也意味着地球的泪水。这项工作意味着大自然的可贵；如果我们不积极地保护它，也许下一代只能通过数据了解湿地。

Structural artistry is also a focus of the spatial design. The linear and network-like structures are regularly and irregularly intertwined. The mass constructed by mesh networks allows display and storing of objects without complete isolation. The visual changes created by the intertwining of structures give the user a magical feeling when he/she moves within the space.

结构艺术也是空间设计的一个焦点。线性和网状结构是有规律的和不规则的交织在一起的。由网格网络构造的质量允许在不完全隔离的情况下显示和存储对象。结构交织在一起所产生的视觉变化给用户在空间中移动时带来了一种神奇的感觉。

In the meantime, the entire grey area features an obvious yet congruous burgundy pendant light inspired by the local landmark, Guandu Bridge. The elegant lines of the steel panel undermine people’s knowledge about steel as a cold material. The stainless burgundy color faithfully presents the texture of the steel material. Whether it is a carefully crafted artwork or a functional lighting fixture all depends on the viewer’s state of mind.

同时，整个灰色地带的特点是一个明显的，但和谐的勃艮第吊灯灵感来自当地地标，关渡大桥。钢板上优雅的线条破坏了人们对钢铁作为一种冷材料的认识。不锈钢勃艮第色忠实地呈现出钢材质的质感。无论是精心制作的艺术品还是功能性照明装置，都取决于观众的心理状态。

The presentation of space mostly reflects the needs and mindset of the resident. In the Blue Eye project, the rustic characteristic of cement is used as the main feature for shaping the overall atmosphere, reflecting the resident’s pursuit of serenity. The art collection at the entrance is a hundred-year-old carpet from Uzbekistan. This hemp carpet, displaying the long traces of time, adds glory to the Taiwan cypress that once contributed greatly to Taiwan’s architecture.

空间的呈现主要反映了居民的需要和心态。在蓝眼工程中，水泥的乡土特性是塑造整体氛围的主要特征，反映了居民对宁静的追求。入口处的艺术收藏品是来自乌兹别克斯坦的百年历史的地毯.这条麻毯，展现了久远的岁月痕迹，为曾经为台湾建筑做出巨大贡献的台湾柏树增添了光彩。

Meanwhile, materials such as copper and iron appear subtly in the space, giving rich diversity to the serenity. The use of wood and stone also adds more smoothness and exquisiteness to the grey-toned apartment. The use of cement and water-resistant moiré coating in the master bathroom again silently shows the resident’s pursuit of pure tranquility in the living space.

同时，铜、铁等材料巧妙地出现在空间中，给宁静带来了丰富的多样性。木材和石头的使用也增加了更平滑和精致的灰色色调的公寓。在主浴室里使用水泥和防水的莫尔涂层，再一次悄无声息地体现了居民在生活空间中对纯净宁静的追求。

The resident’s mindset determines where he/she lives. The pursuit of tranquility as well as exploration and expectations of the future environment may serve as the best interpretation of a Blue Eye resident’s state of mind.

居民的心态决定了他/她住在哪里。对宁静的追求，以及对未来环境的探索和期望，可能是对蓝眼居民心理状态的最好解释。
