RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The overall concept of this project is “hug”, which the design team wants to deliver a feeling of welcoming home. Therefore, the low-saturation color is applied to create a calm look and Titanium-plated stainless steel is partly used to embellish the space. The design of arch shape not only reduces the visual stress but consider the safety of family members.

On the other hand, due to the age of the users that might causes some eye diseases, the designers need to consider carefully the lighting plan that is both aesthetic and functional.
