- Production Technology
- As there were other buildings next to it, the space underneath the elevated building could space up the pedestrian road, while providing the main space on the upper floor to be separated from the street and allowing the transparent space to remain private. At this height, people could enjoy the view of the forest park and the mountains. The designer used the metallic ironwork with mineral paint to give the interior space a textured and broader appearance, while the exterior was finished with tempered glass.
- Design Challenge
- The design aims to be people-oriented and combined with history and the environment, while constructing a space and building without losing commercial value and highlighting its humanistic meaning.
- Research
- Beitou district has a history of Japanese culture where this project is located in, and the hot spring culture was brought into this area T the Japanese colonized period. Therefore, in the configuration of the space, the designer placed grass futons, a symbolic meaning of the Japanese era, so that the history existed in the modern design and form a contrast, bringing a visual impact.
- Inspiration
- This project is located in Beitou District in the northern Taiwan and was the result of the reflection and evolution of the local culture. Inspired by floating, the aim was to create an architectural appearance that blended with the environment and interacted with it.
- Project Duration
- This project is located in Beitou District, Taipei City. Started in in January 2021 and be completed in March 2021.
- Operation Flow
- The designer retained the elements of the old building and regenerated and utilized them as the screens of the meeting area. The designer covered the old iron window grilles with glass and installed the lighting function in it, reflecting its beautiful patterns, creating a sense of rhythm through light and shadow, and serving as a partition between meeting spaces. This became the main focus of the room.
