About Warehouse 20 21 22 23 Athnuachan Ceardlainne Stairiúla

Mar aitheantas don struchtúr stairiúil, ní hamháin chun an struchtúr a chaomhnú a bhí mar aidhm ag dearadh Athléiriú na Ceardlainne Stairiúla ach freisin chun aird a dhíriú ar an eilimint stairiúil trína chur chun cinn. Úsáideann an t-ailtire frámaí cruach nua a leagann amach an spás agus a chosnaíonn an struchtúr bunaidh, agus le dearadh soilsithe cuirtear an struchtúr ar taispeáint freisin, rud a fhágann gur taispeántas é an spás don ailtireacht thionsclaíoch féin. Tugann an tionscadal tréith nua-aimseartha don spás a chruthaíonn caidreamh forluiteach idir an nua-aimseartha agus an tionsclaíoch.

As an appreciation to the historical structure, the purpose of the design was not only to preserve but also to spotlight the structure by drawing attention to the historical element. The new steel frames that outline the space protects the original structure, and with lighting design also exhibits the structure, making the space an exhibition for the industrial architecture itself. The design brings a modern characteristic to the space that creates an overlapping relationship between modern and industrial.

Design Challenge
The hardest part of this design is how to input new design elements into a historical space, for the elements of old and new to co-exist without decreasing the historical value.
Research
Revealing Lighting Design
The most significant feature of the building is the unique steel structure; from the column to the beams. The team put together the historical structure with the lighting design, to emphasize the beauty of the industrial-era architecture, and also to define the spatial characteristics of the design. The lighting design is focused on three areas:
1.The upper steel structures: H-beam light hanged above the ceiling to illuminate the upper steel structure of the historical building.
2.The hollow steel columns: lighting inside the steel column illuminates from the inside, creating a depth perception and to draw attention on the historical structure.
3.Display Boxes: 90*90cm-display-boxes equipped with LED lights were designed to surround the column to spotlight the structure, and also to protect the historical relic.
Inspiration
The site is located in the Zhongxing Cultural and Creative Park; once home to a paper manufacturing company in Taiwan. When it was operational, these warehouses were workshops for metal and woodwork of the factory, thus the structures were specifically designed for the workshop, which gives the warehouse distinctive features. The purpose of this renewal project is to redesign the place into a historical exhibition and promote the historical value of the paper factory that once existed.
Project Duration
Project duration : 5 months
The project is located in Yilan County, Taiwan.
Operation Flow
The balance of Industrial Imagery
Due to the budget reasons, the materials used on the design were mostly industrial. One of which, in order to improve the transparency of the space, lightweight and simple materials were used, such as; steel bars, polycarbonate panels, and glass block; materials that have least structural joints, to bring softer elements into the historical space.
