TRIVIUM is a manifestation of the client's long-standing desire for a place to relax from busy activities and also fill the mind when visiting with pure void space as nature provides mountains, water, and sky. This is the key for ALIVEUS architecture in filling buildings with structures, emptying them to incorporate nature, and determining what to expect from TRIVIUM in the future, such as the nature of light. The word "TRIVIUM" aims to convey the aesthetics of emptiness to visitors through three natural elements.

Involving the collaboration between the client and ALIVEUS architecture in the design process of this building to tailor the design that truly matches the client's expectations by focusing on simplicity creates a design that brings nature into every space. Structural simplicity should be the main context for the overall design. In the central communal space on the second floor, the architect created a waffle structure with a square open to the sky, allowing horizontal and vertical openness and providing opportunities to experience various sky views. Under the skylight, there is a shallow pool to strengthen the character of the building that must always be connected to nature. Besides that, there is also an outdoor area with a larger shallow pool.

The first floor represents an inner space where the water feature on the terrace is covered with glass walls leading to beautiful outdoor views. The water feature on the terrace serves as an outdoor relaxation space and provides light reflections on interior surfaces over time. Light reflected on exposed concrete surfaces can be considered an additional element to the interior. The room is used for activities such as yoga, meditation, and aromatherapy, and as the owner wishes, it provides a sense of calm for those who visit TRIVIUM.
