About Mighty Dragon on the Hill Lantegia

Mendiko Herensuge Ahaltsua elektrikoak diren autoak ekoizteko lantegi-multzo bat da, Miaoli-n, Taiwanen. Parkeak zazpi hektarea hartzen ditu eta sei eraikin nagusi ditu, administrazio-zentro bat, ikerketa-zentro bat, egoitza bat eta ekoizpen-linea bat barne. Formak herensuge tradizional txinatarraren irudia hartzen du, eta arku-teilatu baxuek mendiaren jatorrizko zerumuga mantentzen dute. Arku-teilatuek, gainera, haize-presioa murrizten dute eta etorkizunean panel fotovoltaikoak gehitzeko aukera ematen dute. Zona berde zabalak, banyan zuhaitz zahar bat eta tokiko tenplu bat gordetzen dira gunean.

The banyan tree is made the core belief of this factory of green technology, and the local traditional faith is kept. Being the factory beside a highway, a recharge station is available to benefit drivers. It not only serves as a rest area but also rid of the boredom of mass mechanic production in common factories.
Inspiration: This project takes the image of traditional Chinese dragon, in the place that takes up 7 hectares. The case has to not only meet the complex needs for such considerable technology industry, but also account for the impact upon the environment and culture. According to the demand for production and function, there are six main buildings in the park, including administration center, research center, dormitory and production line.
Project Duration: The project finished in October 2020 in Miaoli, Taiwan.
