About XOR Creative Research オフィスインテリアデザイン
XOR Creative Researchは、台中市に1972年に建てられた台湾の連棟住宅を舞台としたオフィスインテリアである。この改修は、過去と現代とを結び合わせている。ファサードは白い格子窓で覆われ、一方で内部は文化的な要素を織り込んだモダンな空間となっている。黄金比に基づいて設計された螺旋階段が、深いブルーの背景を背にして立ち上がる。既存の台湾タイルの床は大部分がそのまま保存され、モザイクタイル、木製パーケット、地元産大理石をヘリンボーン状に組み合わせている。折戸によって、オープンなミーティングエリアとスウォッチライブラリーが仕切られている。

- Production Technology
- At the ground floor, the spiral staircase built on golden ratio attracts attentions. The staircase implies a symbolic and composed statement to the space, and inhabitants can observe spatial movement on each step. Deep blue backdrops set off the long-narrow plan, conveying a minimalist comparison with bygones. To preserve most building structure, the slope ceiling encompasses vernacular wooden truss framework underneath. A chamfer floor mirror echoes to poly-lines near ceiling, reflecting lush from backyard to indoors. The exposed masonry of brick wall, a remembrance our colonial influence from Japan in the past.
- Design Challenge
- To eliminate stereotypes to retro elements. Select our indigenous materials on the flooring: white marble from Hualien city, and emerald marble from Taitung city. Deconstructing natural stones and mismatching nowadays tiles, and retro bronze metals on flooring, comes up with a progressive herringbone array, giving a modern newness.
- Research
- To reminisce about traditional material technique in 1970's, authentic Taiwanese tile flooring is mostly preserved. Inspiration of ‘material paradox,’ flooring combine geometrical mosaic tiles and wood parquet to create a ‘tapestry’ effect. Flooring pairs with terrazzo table top, stimulating an intriguing connection between old/classic and new/contemporary creativity.
- Inspiration
- The building is an old indigenous Taiwanese terraced house at Taichung city, built in 1972. Aiming to revitalize a traditional building, we regard this project is a fusion between the past and new era, and take concepts of "twist" and "new born" instead of reborn or rebirth. The facade, cladded with white lattice window, showcases modernized interior of cultural undertones.
- Project Duration
- Started from September 2018 and finished in March 2019.
Taichung city, Taiwan - Operation Flow
