About The Art Of Community Public Space
The Art of Community is a public space design within a residential development in Taichung City, Taiwan. The shared areas include a six-meter-high lobby that opens to a planted courtyard, an art corridor and a living kitchen. Glazing of 3.3 meters brings natural light and airflow into the interior. Minimalist concrete is combined with warm wood, while soft organic curves replace hard angles, most visibly in the curved wooden architecture of the library. The formal lobby counter was removed to create a seamless flow to the courtyard and to encourage interaction among residents.

- Production Technology
- Guided by biophilic principles, the design methodology focused on dissolving the barrier between indoors and out. This was achieved through a 6-meter-high lobby and expansive 3.3-meter glazing, maximizing natural light and airflow. The material palette intentionally blends minimalist concrete with warm wood to craft a sophisticated yet gentle atmosphere. A key technique was favoring soft, organic curves over hard angles, most prominent in the library's unique curved wooden architecture.
- Design Challenge
- The primary creative challenge was translating the abstract concept of community into tangible architectural form. The design had to actively encourage social interaction, not just provide amenities. The key obstacle was overcoming traditional design barriers; removing the formal lobby counter and creating a seamless flow to the central courtyard were crucial decisions. Realizing the project's signature organic forms and soft curves also posed a significant construction challenge, requiring precision to achieve the desired welcoming atmosphere.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the human-centric and biophilic principles of WOHA architects, the motive was to create a true community, not just housing. The design fosters a holistic lifestyle for young families by weaving art, nature, and shared experiences into daily life. This approach seeks to elevate residential living by creating an ecosystem where human connection can flourish through shared spaces like the Art Corridor and Living Kitchen, crafting a lifestyle rooted in aesthetic appreciation.
