The Realm of Graphite
The Realm of Graphite is a residential interior design for a 116 square meter home in Taoyuan City. A palette of black, gray and white is combined with warm wood tones and stone accents. A cross-shaped circulation plan places the living room and dining room at the center, while the bedrooms are arranged around the perimeter. Laminate herringbone flooring, curved details and an arched ceiling add classical references to a modern framework. Wood cladding conceals a low structural beam, and dark slatted panels with sliding doors form the television wall.
The Realm of Graphite Residential House by Yao Li Han was selected as an innovative illustration of architectural design by the A' Design Awards. The Realm of Graphite Residential House earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Interior Space and Exhibition Design in 2026. The A' Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design competition which rewards exceptional design of residential interiors, restaurants, hotels, offices, galleries, retail stores, showrooms, exhibition spaces and more.
