Design Details

Unique Properties
The waterscape and greenery accompany the domestic animal sculptures which makes the space fairytale-like. With the concept of fairy tale, the designer blends the ecological education into society, forming the environment that can last for future generations.
Inspiration
The design is based on the idea of fairy tale forest, which is elaborated into a story, blending into space perfectly with the scenery indoor and outdoor.
Research
Multi-layer planting is used to mildly adjust the weather, and to balance the humidity and temperature. Air is allowed to circulate; sunlight is introduced into the space. The use of air conditioner and lighting is able to be reduced so that urban heat island effect can be alleviated and eco-friendliness is presented.
Challenge
The Multi-layer planting provides not only the seasonal scenery, but a platform for people to learn indigenous trees of Taiwan.
Realization and Technology
The designer adopted the loop layout to make the narrow space unique and interesting, so that it can be connected with the design core of the forest-like scene and fairy tales. The design team used arcs to divide the space based on different functions; the public art theme, fairy tale, is created from different sizes of arcs.
Operation and Interaction
The arc-shaped flower stand made of black-grey stone represents the image that people make a bow and greet to whoever enter it. Supplemented by evergreen shrub and light reflection, a pine forest perfectly intertwines with the building materials, stone, greenery and public art; besides, it brings out the delicacy of building materials and plantings indiscernibly as well.
Project Duration and Location
The project finished in October 2020 in Taichung, Taiwan.
Specifications
The project is 950 square meter.
