02 Field note
How the room is composed
- layout
- Diagonal stairs, open frames, transformable platforms, and zoned work or reading tables prioritize movement and shared programs over conventional domestic symmetry.
- materials
- Painted steel, plywood, white plaster, linoleum, glass, canvas, and standardized hardware make construction legible while supporting economical fabrication and reconfiguration.
- furniture
- Stackable chairs, folding tables, modular reading stations, built-in display racks, and angular benches serve multiple collective uses with minimal material and visual weight.
- lighting
- Large factory-like windows, suspended linear fittings, geometric shades, and exposed electrical routes distribute practical light as another visible component of the system.
- decoration
- Red and black planes, diagonals, structural lettering forms without readable text, and repeated circles or bars act as spatial orientation rather than applied luxury.
