Unique Properties
The first key feature is the shield-shaped facade, symbolizing 'home protection' as a fortress offering security. Materials like wood wool cement boards and flexible PU coatings prevent cracks from earthquakes and enhance texture. The ground floor features an open parking area, while the ceiling incorporates geometric shapes, adding depth. The second feature is the concentric wall inside, representing 'home as the center.' Radiating outward, the interior walls form layered partitions, highlighting stability, warmth, and the inclusive nature of the home.
Dimensions & Packaging
The first floor features a parking area, a model display area, and an accessible booth for visitors who may have difficulty going upstairs. This booth allows for comfortable discussions and displays viewing on the first floor. The model display area is designed with curved concentric walls, highlighting the project location, introducing the design team, and outlining future development plans. On the second floor, there's a discussion area, a show-home area, and a tea bar for relaxation and photos. The discussion area benefits from large east-facing windows, maximizing natural light for a bright and comfortable environment.

Production Technology
The exterior features wood wool cement boards paired with flexible PU coatings, allowing for structural expansion and contraction. The outer walls are coated with metal lacquer, creating a semi-reflective finish that shimmers subtly in sunlight, adding a modern, striking touch. Inside, wood veneer is used extensively, providing a warm and tactile feel that enhances the home's comfort. Stone veneer complements the design, reinforcing stability and security, balancing the overall atmosphere, and creating a harmonious blend of softness and strength.
Design Challenge
To ensure stability, especially for the second-floor reception area above the parking lot, architects implemented a steel structure system. Secondary beams were added beneath the main beams to distribute structural pressure, effectively mitigating vibrations and earthquake impacts. Additionally, in response to stricter regulations, this project became the first reception center in New Taipei City to fully comply with official fire safety standards. The fire protection systems were fully integrated, meeting the same requirements as permanent buildings, ensuring safety and compliance.
Research
The project is a reception center designed around the core concept of 'home protection.' The shield-shaped exterior and meticulous interior planning combine strength and warmth. Layered shield shapes symbolize the solid defense of a home, while semi-reflective materials and linear lighting create a striking visual effect. The facade materials, such as wood wool cement boards and flexible PU coatings, enhance stability in a seismic environment. Inside, the design radiates outward from the central model area, symbolizing home as the center and its connection to the surrounding environment.
Inspiration
The reception center is the first gateway for potential buyers, making the initial impression crucial. The project centers around the theme of 'home protection.' Geometric shield shapes are layered on the exterior, symbolizing the solid defense of a family. From a distance, the sleek shield forms resemble a fortress. The combination of semi-reflective materials and linear lighting on the facade not only creates a visually striking effect but also conveys a silent sense of protection, instilling a sense of trust in visitors about their future homes.
Project Duration
The project finished in June 2024 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow
The reception center's design is highly recognizable, featuring a striking shield-shaped facade and bold volume that make it a local landmark. It has become a reference case for industry professionals. Visitors immediately feel a warm, relaxed atmosphere upon entering, with wood textures, greenery, and soft natural light creating a sense of openness and ease. Unlike traditionally luxurious and rigid designs, this center offers an approachable and welcoming environment, showcasing the success of a soft and thoughtful design approach.
