Production Technology
The appearance of the building is clad with fiber cement board, and construct a huge stone shape, thence emit an image of living in the cave; painted with ceramic paint, which imitates the rough surface of rocks, and as well as having the affection of weather resistance and anti-fouling. The large-scale volume of pure white is just like a canvas, and the nature is its painter. By way of sunlight projection, delicately depicted light and shadow.
Design Challenge
There’s a challenge of module processing, which has to repeatedly test in order to control the deviation, and reserve enough space for each metal hanger, so as to create a vivid dynamic landscape.
Research
The facade of the volume is assembled with rhombus lattice, which modularized via digital die cutting segmentation approach. The metal material glaring in the sunshine, which generate the delineation of staggered crown.
Inspiration
Initiate from the inspiration of "embracing and enjoying the nature".
The designer pulls space-time back to the cave dwelling patterns of the ancient times, which get back to the simple state that requires by modern people.
The notion of the design is originated from Uluru (Ayers Rock) in Australia. The figuration of the gigantic rock, which like the constructed appearance of caves that, symbolized the stability and reliability of home. Gently situated in the plantation of harmony and serenity.
Project Duration
The project started in March 2019 in Taichung and finished in July 2019 in Taichung.
Operation Flow
Reference to the land features and weather of Uluru, it would present different scenes s of depending on different seasons and climatic conditions, even at different times of a day, changing with the light.
Accordingly, the designer chiseling the hexagonal holes and inlaying the metal frame, while the sunlight shins and the clouds roam, and then it becomes a landscape of its own.
