FAK3 360 Degrees Elliptical Cabinet

FAK3 created a home that took the concept of open multi-functional spaces to a whole new realm. The client wanted to have a central space to facilitate a variety of activities: dining, study, recreation and with a spot for the son to practise his burgeoning skills on the electronic keyboards. FAK3 designed an elliptical cabinet that can rotate 360-degrees. On its two longer sides, it housed a set of keyboards and a desk; the two shorter sides accommodated storage and a television. Fitted with industrial strength bearings that can support up to two tonnes, the wooden cabinet rotates with the push of just one finger. Its off-centred axis means as the cabinet moves, its content and form shifts the room’s perceived spatial configuration to give each zone its own character.

Colour plays a large part in 360’s design. The kitchen is finished in a brilliant cobalt blue. One bathroom is clad in a soft pink and white marble while the other sparkles with crystals and jade. The black shower curtain is custom made and features pastoral images of Guilin. To maximise the play area, the son’s cheerful yellow bedroom features steps up to a bunk bed with storage, closet and desk below. In contrast to the large fluid space in the living area, the bedrooms and bathrooms are orthogonal and strictly delineated.
