elevation study
Break the symmetric geometry. Separate the different levels of spaces. From bottom to top; from left to right. Use different vertical circulation to connect or isolate the specific spaces.
Extend the terraces at the back-side elevation to create much more balance spaces on the top of the building.

About Design
N
To transform the second part, space, into an architecture with function, stores with studios of Tainan traditional handmade bags are the theme of the building. As you can see, the site is located at the corner of the block; face to a hustling and bustling cross road in Tainan City. How to create a charming elevation and multi-level space to promote the Tainan traditional industries is what I want to do in this project.

Art Foundation The design is about an art foundation, which combine exhibitions and gallery with offices attached to a hospital_
Art Foundation
正興街西市場
About Site 民生路
The site is located at the downtown area across from the hospital in Tainan City. The south elevation faces to the historically traditional market from Japanese colonial era. The north elevation faces to the main street, which is hustling and bustling.
Program Diagram
The exhibitions start from the MAIN STAIRS I created. There is a suggestion leading you to go through all exhibition spaces. And then, you can leave from south exit, or the entrance you came in. The office is on the first floor to separate from the exhibition spaces. And
Concept Diagram
there is a showcase between the officeand the entrance, so you won't see the office directly. Of course, there is a cafe' on the first floor that visitors who leave from the exit can enjoy it. Those who work in the office can enjoy it, too.
