Nanzih District / Traditional Industries Innovation Center MOEA
Located in the controlled area of a complex industrial zone surrounded by heavy traffic, the Traditional Industries Innovation Center MOEA features a facade that has become highly distinctive in Kaohsiung. Pentagonal in shape with an architectural plane that blends in with the complex surrounding environment, the center incorporates transparent glass covered by white aluminum plates that were installed to form a double-walled building. This design features light layers, though the lower floors have less windows to ensure the privacy of its users. The higher floors’ windows open to offer users panoramic views and a fascinating visual experience.
楠梓/經濟部傳統產業創新加值中心
經濟部傳統產業創新加值中心位處工業區管制區域內,在工業區繁複的都市紋理與周邊交通要道的繁忙交通中,它的建築立面成為顯眼的都市標記。
建築體為五角形量體,似乎沒有顯著的正面,也沒有恢宏的主入口,更像一棟安靜平和的建築,讓人易於親近。建築師選擇的平面與型態,契合周圍複雜的環境,然而立面以透明玻璃為底,外殼覆以白色鋁板,形成雙層牆的建築立面,帶有輕量且多層次的造型意象,又同時讓人感受它與周圍環境的不同。我認為建築表現性的掌控是個挑戰,需要與複雜的環境共存,同時表現其特徵,可能恰如其名,既是傳統又是創新,締造了一種大隱於市之感。
低層樓開窗較少的設置,適當保護著建築使用者的隱私,而高樓層的開口,即與環境周圍發生了視線連結的對話。想像由內在虛實相間的立面,向外凝視來往穿梭的人行與車流,必然是有趣的空間體驗。
