About Yuan Fengjing Торак бина

Yuan Feng Jing — Тайваньның Гаосюн шәһәрендәге торак бина проекты. Проект тәртипсез формадагы шәһәр участокларына ике манара урнаштыруны күздә тота. А манарасы квадрат формада һәм 19 катка күтәрелә. B манарасы овал формада һәм 12 катка күтәрелә. Су объектлары һәм бакчалар булган үзәк ландшафт күчәре ике манараны бәйли. 45 фатирның күбесе дүрт бүлмәле планировкага ия. А манарасының җиденче катыннан югарырак кунак бүлмәләре якындагы паркның киң күренешләренә карап урнаштырылган. Фасадларда ак һәм соры төсләр, мозаика плиткалары, рәшәткә тоткалары һәм тишекле алюминий панельләр кулланылган.

Unique Properties
The project's defining feature lies in its contrast and integration of form. On two irregular sites, 1871 and 555.3 sqm, the architects created a 19-story square Tower A and a 12-story oval Tower B. Their varied heights and shapes evoke 'sun and moon in harmony, water and greenery in balance.' Tower A’s square form is softened with curves, while Tower B's oval form adopts vertical rhythms. A flipped floor plan orients lower units inward to a landscaped courtyard, while higher floors open to panoramic views of the 40-hectare Weiwuying Park.
Dimensions & Packaging
Yuan Feng Jing is a reinforced-concrete residential project comprising 45 units, mainly four-bedroom layouts from 211.5 to 267.7 sqm. The 2393.3 sqm site has a 36.05 percent shared facility ratio. Tower A rises 19 stories, Tower B 12, linked by a central landscaped axis with water features, gardens, and a welcoming driveway. Vertical circulation is centralized to maximize green space. Despite Tower B's compact footprint, a sloped ramp and flat parking ensure each unit has an independent space, balancing function and design.

Production Technology
The facades use white and gray tones to express a minimalist modern vocabulary, enriched by layered materials. Tower A's curved balconies are clad in white mosaic tiles with cement grout, appearing smooth from afar yet textured up close. Tower B's staggered grille bars turn balcony railings into rhythmic surfaces. Rooftops feature white perforated aluminum panels, creating a laced play of light and shadow. The composition blends purity with layered detail, offering texture and interest from every angle.
Design Challenge
The greatest challenge was managing the site's irregular geometry and fragmented parcels. Tower B's oval lot, just 555.3 sqm, was first considered viable only for mechanical lift parking. Insisting on a sloped, flat solution, the team conducted extensive simulations and coordination to deliver 14 independent spaces, showing detail and user focus. Another challenge was Tower A's flipped layout: above the 7th floor, living rooms were rotated 180 degrees for optimal views, requiring precise integration of exhaust, circulation, and structure.
Research
Located in Kaohsiung's Fengshan District, Yuan Feng Jing integrates irregular urban lots into a dual-tower residence. Using the concept of 'one square, one circle; one tall, one low; one front, one back,' the architects turned site constraints into sculptural dialogue. Tower A is square and rational, Tower B oval and soft, together forming an urban rhythm of sun and moon. Instead of maximizing density, the design favors openness, green space, flipped floor plans, and deep balconies, enhancing views, livability, and community vitality.
Inspiration
Located in a quiet alley in Kaohsiung's Fengshan District, the project site integrates a former parking lot with fragmented parcels, forming a unique polygonal lot. The architects initiated the design with a 'twin-tower master plan' concept, seeking to transform urban edge plots, often seen as leftover or irregular, into a rhythmic and orderly residential community. Embracing the complexity of the site, the architects responded to the urban texture by proposing a dialogue of 'square and circle, tall and low, front and rear,' ultimately shaping a rhythmic and spiritually symbolic landmark.
Project Duration
The project finished in Taiwan.
Operation Flow
Yuan Feng Jing makes its mark not through mass but through vision for a better urban future. Eschewing density-maximizing strategies, the architects preserved open space, returning land to light and air while creating a refined residential community enriched with cultural ambiance. Upon completion, it quickly became a local landmark. Residents praise its rare proximity to both water and greenery, especially Weiwuying Park, while architecture students and professionals visit it as a model of contemporary residential design.
