Rûkêşa sereke sîwaxek herrî ya kevneşopî ye ku ji herriya sor, kayê birinc û birincê şêranî hatiye çêkirin, ku ji bo birêkûpêkkirina şilbûn û germahiya hundir alîkariyê dike.

Unique Properties: This project challenges that convention by utilizing sustainable Earth-based materials as the spatial centerpiece. The primary finish is a traditional clay plaster composed of red clay, rice straw, and glutinous rice. This bio-composite not only anchors the aesthetic but also naturally regulates indoor humidity and temperature, significantly enhancing the building's energy efficiency and environmental performance.
Dimensions & Packaging: Area,36 m²

Production Technology: The palette centers on raw, tactile materials: Red Clay Plaster, Patinated Steel, and Resin Mortar Flooring.
Design Challenge: The site is situated within a narrow 5-meter alley, flanked by adjacent buildings that restrict natural light to a brief morning window. To overcome this, a 75cm diameter circular aperture was precision-cut into the floor slab, into which a conical steel fixture was embedded to funnel daylight deep into the interior. Due to the extreme spatial constraints, heavy machinery was inaccessible; thus, the installation and securing of all structural steel components required meticulous manual suspension and manual rigging techniques.
Research: To preserve the pristine state of the unrepairable clay walls, all hanging points were meticulously calculated and pre-installed with iron hardware. To ensure long-term versatility, the patinated steel shelves are fully adjustable and removable, providing a dynamic display system that evolves with each exhibition.
Inspiration: "A gentle breeze passes, sunlight trickles down; a ritualistic ascent that feels like retreating into a secluded valley."
A strategic skylight functions as a natural spotlight, focusing brilliance directly onto the sculptures.
The visitor is enveloped by a curved red clay wall, A solid wood counter seamlessly integrates consultation with curated exhibition, while timber louvered doors provide a semi-permeable boundary that extends the visual horizon into the private quarters.
Project Duration: The project was initiated in January 2024 in Taichung, Taiwan, and reached completion in December 2024.
Operation Flow: Beneath the circular skylight at the upper-left entrance, a stone sculpture is strategically positioned to bridge the gap between the neighborhood and the visitors, fostering an immediate and tactile connection with the artwork.
