About Linkou Pure Land Будда залы

Линькоу Тайза залы — окутуу, чакан ырдоо (чант) жана медитация үчүн иштелип чыккан будда залы. Зал кондоминиум имаратынын жертөлө кабатын ээлейт жана окуу бөлмөсүнө, кабыл алуу аймагына жана негизги залга бөлүнгөн. Табигый күн нуру биринчи кабаттан баскычтар аркылуу түшөт. Тешикчелүү үлгүдөгү дубалдар менен айнек экрандар мейкиндикти ачык кармап турат, ал эми бамбук пейзаждуу терезелер өсүмдүк дүйнөсүнүн атмосферасын кошумчалайт. Шыптарда асман люгин туурап турган жарыктыгы жөнгө салынуучу жарык берүү тутуму орнотулган. Жыгач түстөр менен бетон беттери интерьерге тынч жана таза мүнөз берет. Курулуш аянты 727 чарчы метрди түзөт.

Unique Properties
The Buddha Hall is a place where masters give speeches and adherents gather for sharing teachings, chanting scriptures, and undergoing mindful meditation. Believing every religious gathering place contributes to social and spiritual well-being, this project design aspires to have a positive impact on the society and community. Aligned with the core beliefs and the figurative representation of the Pure Land, the design focuses on creating a space that feels pure, tranquil, and primitive.
Dimensions & Packaging
Construction area 727 square meter.

Production Technology
To accommodate various activities, the space is planned out and primarily divided into a classroom, a reception area, and the main hall. Notably, transparent elements like glass screens and hollow-patterned walls maintain a consistent flow of space, offering adherents and neighboring residents a peaceful retreat from concerns and stress.
Design Challenge
Rather than a prominent storefront location, the site situated on the basement floor of a condominium building inherits a sense of darkness due to poor daylighting, ventilation, and air circulation. Thus, to erase the oppressive impression and to forge a breezy entrance, natural sunlight penetrates the basement through the stairway from the ground floor. The wall, patterned with hollow designs, intertwine with bamboo landscaping windows, infusing a refreshing botanical vibe into both the reception area and the main worship hall.
Research
The site construction is divided into two phases, and this project represents the first phase, including a classroom, a reception area, and the main hall, catering to the needs of all adult demographics. Meanwhile, this Buddha hall is prepared to be connected to a children's reading area with a capacity for 60 children during the coming phase construction, which will collectively offer the community with a safe, culturally enriched, and parent-child friendly space.
Inspiration
This hall is affiliated with the branch of Mahayana Buddhism, focused on achieving rebirth in the Pure Land of Bliss. One of the fundamental principles in this religion is that faith, aspiration, and practice are the three provisions for reaching rebirth in the Pure Land of the Buddha Amitabha. Drawing inspiration from the concept of the Pure Land, the entire space is imbued with a sense of dignity and tranquility.
Project Duration
Linkou District, Taipei city.
Operation Flow
Despite its basement location, the Buddha hall doesn't feel confined, preserving all its spatial utility functions while ensuring an even and naturally moderate lighting. The ceilings are cladded with dimmable lighting devices, simulating a skylight effect and reflecting the notion of 'may the Buddha's light shine' depicted in the Buddha scriptures. Additionally, the flooring features wood tones, and the backdrops incorporate concrete elements, imbuing the space with a sense of natural purity that complements the main hall solemnity.
