Green-Backed Tit Nesting Plan is an art installation and pavilion with an integrated lighting design at Sun Moon Lake. The nest-like structure invites visitors to step inside and rest. The lighting design begins with human vision rather than illuminating the installation itself. Attention is placed on balancing the illumination between the surrounding environment and the visitors. Lighting fixtures with suitable light distribution and cut-off angles are integrated into the wooden structure to create a glare-free ambiance that sustains the tranquility of the lake.
