About Shiding Tea Ceremony Teekunst-Klassenzimmer

Shiding Tea Ceremony ist ein Teekunst-Klassenzimmer, das für eine weiterführende Schule in Taipeh geschaffen wurde. Das Projekt verwandelt einen feuchten und dunklen Lagerraum in einen offenen Unterrichtsraum. Große Glasfenster und eine Holzplattform verbinden den Innenraum mit der umgebenden Landschaft, und Bambus wird als Deckenmaterial verwendet. Ein originaler Teeofen und Schornstein wurden als Erinnerung an die Vergangenheit erhalten. Das Glas wurde verstärkt ausgeführt und die Fensterrahmen wurden aus Sicherheitsgründen verstärkt. Der Raum misst 18370 mm in der Breite, 9280 mm in der Tiefe und 4430 mm in der Höhe. Das offene Raumkonzept fördert den Kontakt zwischen Schülern, Besuchern und der Natur.

Production Technology: We use a large glass and wooden platform to connect the landscape to the interior space, and use bamboo as a ceiling material to bring natural elements into the space design.
Design Challenge: This design case uses the original tea-making experience classroom of the school to carry out planning and transformation.
Shiding high school is located in the wet and rainy halfway up the mountain. The building has been in such an environment for a long time and has been seriously repaired with serious wall cancer problems and water leakage.
Also, because of the damage of tea-making equipment, the frequency of classes is reduced, and it is a wet and dark storage room.
We reorganized the built environment and kept one of the tea stoves and chimneys as memories of the past.
Taiwan’s past was deeply influenced by the culture of Japanese rule, and the tea ceremony brought in exquisite and rigorous tea spirit at that time.
Taiwanese tea art retains the important elements of Taiwanese tea art and advocates the attitude of life and nature.
Therefore, we use wood materials to reflect the flavor of Japanese style and make a fusion with Taiwanese tea.
Let the rigor and focus of the Japanese-style tea ceremony be reflected in the space, and the wooden structure also makes the original wet and cold space warmer.
The natural mellowness of Taiwanese tea is filled with the fragrance of the entire space to the natural environment outside.
It symbolizes the Zen and life attitude of Taiwanese tea art.
The school plans to open a large area of floor-to-ceiling windows, and the school has security concerns.
Worried that such a design would be invaded or destroyed by a person with a heart or a broken glass caused by a typhoon.
Therefore, in addition to increasing the thickness of the glass, and strengthening the structure of the window frame,
The design is made and safe.
Research: Shiding High School is located in the mountainside campus in the rainy area. The surrounding characteristic industry of this school is the tea industry. The school hopes that the designer can connect the idle space with the characteristic industries around the school, and the designer cuts into the space design from the perspective of humanity. Concept, many people in the former Taiwanese society will put a pot of tea at their doorstep, so that passers-by can ease the hardships on the road, but as the society progresses, people's requirements for safety and health are gradually improved. Such behavior is now invisible. At the same time, people's distrust is also rising. The school also builds a high wall for students' safety to teach students knowledge. The designer's challenge is how to use space changes to restore trust between people. The teacher removed the high walls of the campus, allowing the students' vision to extend outwards, establishing a connection between the human and the natural environment, while the people who went up the mountain extended their steps outdoors for a while, and the students served a cup of tea. The fatigue of the passengers also allows the students to find the feelings of the people in the process of offering tea, sincerely caring for others, or This is just a simple thing, but it will gradually ferment in the minds of students, affecting their thinking and life. The opening of large-scale external windows, in addition to the sense of influence, also increases natural lighting to make the overall indoor environment no longer bleak.
Inspiration: In early Taiwan society, The culture of tea serving, which relieved the hardship of passersby in the past, reflects a spirit of giving and a virtuous character of the host.Today tea is an art, but the most important spirit of it is not preserved. creating the openness and connectivity between indoor and outdoor spaces,which closes the distance between people and removes the barrier of trust.
Project Duration: The project began in Taipei in October 2018, was completed in Taipei in April 2019, and was exhibited in Taipei in June 2019.
Operation Flow: Make the originally enclosed space open, visually, this creates a feeling of openness and connectivity between indoor and outdoor spaces.
