“Living Canvas” began as a response to the spatial constraints of single-person households. As the number of such homes continues to rise, this functional artwork aims to enhance not just space efficiency, but also the quality of life. Serving both as a canvas and a table, it integrates aesthetic value with daily utility. It reflects a social shift toward compact, meaningful living—elevating personal well-being through art and design in everyday space.
