- Production Technology
- The project employed iterative prototyping, BIM coordination, and close collaboration with local craftsmen to achieve the precision of curved joinery. Materials were locally sourced and finished with low-VOC coatings. Light timber, bronze metals, and eco-efficient lighting combined to balance warmth, durability, and sustainability within a refined architectural language.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was achieving geometric precision within the circular architecture while ensuring seamless integration of lighting and environmental systems. Balancing sustainability and craftsmanship required iterative coordination with local makers and engineers. The team overcame technical, spatial, and sensory complexities to deliver an elegant yet operationally efficient environment.
- Research
- Applied design research focused on spatial psychology and user experience within wellness environments. Using journey mapping, stakeholder interviews, and prototype modelling, the team gathered data on customer behaviour and sensory comfort. Findings informed lighting, acoustics, and circulation strategies that enhanced emotional connection, strengthening brand trust and spatial well-being.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the symbolism of the circle in Taiwanese culture, the design explores ideas of belonging, renewal, and harmony. The project translates these concepts into spatial form, merging cultural heritage with contemporary well-being. Research into traditional architecture and human-centred spatial flow informed the design of a modern sanctuary for connection and discovery.
- Project Duration
- The project commenced in March 2024 and was completed in September 2024. The centre is situated within a commercial tower in central Taipei, serving as a regional centre for customer engagement and wellness experiences.
- Operation Flow
- Visitors are guided through a circular journey, moving from a reflective entry experience to consultation rooms and an event space. The central feature wall and circular skylight anchor orientation while encouraging natural circulation. Interactive digital displays, adaptable partitions, and comfortable seating enhance the dynamic engagement between customers and brand.
