A Bugs Home

This tiny apartment in Taipei, Taiwan, is a bachelors dream. With a limited floor area of just 46 square metres (498 square feet), the architects have really worked their magic on the open plan layout. To maximise space, every single room can be opened up to be part of one whole space, even the bathroom. The minimalist crib is also packed with clever and functional details such as the central rotating TV that makes viewing possible in the living room, bedroom and even from the bathtub, and several sliding doors and screening devices that can be used if privacy is required.

The Mid-Century style retreat was designed in 1963 by architect Brian Mazlin and carefully restored by TFAD design in 2010, it is beautifully understated with clean lines and a unique blend of furniture and accessories. The material choices and colors are sim...
