Design Details
- Unique Properties
- A green atrium is set up in the center of the building, running from the first floor down to the third underground basement floor, with plants in all corners of the atrium, so that even on the ground floor you can feel the comfort of natural light and greenery. This green space also extends upward to the sky garden of the main entertainment lobby on the second floor, which has both public and private functions. The atrium is dotted with green plants both big and small, blurring the boundary between the man-made and the natural.
- Inspiration
- This project in Xinying District, Tainan City is a multi-dwelling unit built by Hai-Fu Construction and Development. The building offers expansive vistas of surrounding greenery. Therefore, the architect considers this view to be one of the major advantages of the site, and adopted an open design for the public areas, bringing the greenery of the outdoors into the indoor environment. Also, since Tainan is a famous historical capital of Taiwan, the interior space also integrates various vintage elements with modern design elements, blending the impression of the old and the new in this historic city.
- Research
- On the second floor, the lounge hall emphasizes the privacy of the residents, with a bar and lounge area for residents, a children's play area, a meditation and yoga area, and an outdoor green terrace plaza. The overall space is adorned with soft fabrics and woods paired with natural kiln-fired bricks, presenting a welcoming atmosphere and a place for residents to engage with their close friends. The roof level is equipped with a gym and a ktv room, and the overall spatial vision is linked to the greenery of the rooftop sky garden. The sky garden area combines tea and barbecue functions to create a multifaceted place for relaxation surrounded by greenery.
- Challenge
- The spatial composition of a multi-dwelling residential complex is a repetition of units, and it is a challenge to create distinct variability and hierarchy. The architects studied the conditions of the site and the local cultural heritage, and designed different styles for different spatial needs, which were then integrated into a whole. The public space is regarded as a key element of the interior of the space, which must satisfy the need for privacy and tranquility of the residence on the one hand, and establish a relationship with the environment on the other.
- Realization and Technology
- Since the site is located in the Xinying District of Tainan City, during the design phase we wanted to echo the history and tradition of Taiwan historic capital city. Therefore, we collaborated with local craftsmen to transform traditional materials into interior decorative elements. The features of brickwork and bamboo weave were emphasized, paired with modern stone materials to put together overarching stylistic features. This responds to the location and leverages modern techniques to transform traditional symbols, so that the ambience of the space is not only imbued with cultural tradition, but also features the new and old characteristics of stylish luxury.
- Operation and Interaction
- The primary focus of the residential space focuses on the creation of living space and settings, while the secondary aspect also hopes to establish interpersonal communication within the community through comfortable public spaces. The high-ceilinged lobby on the first floor has a high outward orientation and directly connects to the community. The north side has a spacious dining area, bar and banquet hall, while the south side is a multi-functional social and reading area, suitable for welcoming and entertaining visitors.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in February 2022 in Tainan, Taiwan.
- Specifications
- The total floor area of this project is 1710 square meter.
