We never look at just one thing; we are always looking at the relation between things and ourselves.—<Way Of Seeing>John Berger

Seeing comes before words. What is your common way of seeing? Individuals act as the subject of self-consciousness and the object in others' mind, people realize their existence by discovering others' observations. However, once the existence of oneself disappears into the torrent of society, what perspective should we use to review and interpret the upcoming future?

From culture hearths of Taichung Old Quarter to

the state between ruin and heritage, Tengaiten has

engaged different facilities and status in the past 80 years. Meanwhile, the state of coexistence between Tengaiten and its block directs this site to diversity and complexity so that certain issues gradually increased over the past 80 years.

Coexistence between Tengaiten and its block directs this site to diversity and complexity.

Issues in Tengaiten block / Lose the order of architecture The unified architectural order in the block of Tengaiten is based on its process of histor y. The local residents' lifestyle and related facilities in the district in terms of the main function in Tengaiten completely changed once ever y renovation.

Eternal Loop Unity of Spatial Fragment

ď˝&#x153;1 2

We fragment the symbolic concentric circle, which is in the centre of Tengaiten, to deconstruct it as several elements in Eternal Loop, such as window's orientation and direction of circulation. Therefore, directionality of space embedded in Eternal Loop.

C h a p t e r 3 ď˝&#x153; E t e r n a l l o o p : C i r c u l a t i o n i n Te n g a i t e n b l o c k

Take the facade elements and experience of space in Tengaiten as a strategy to incorporate in Eternal Loop. Therefore, Eternal Loop conveys different spatial properties via familiar experience to local residents and new spatial perception to tourists.

Space of self-ref lection

In Wang Changling’s Notion of “Mind-Meandering”, the

Eternal Loop, "Mind-Meandering" creates a space for

to experience a space by extending individuals' feeling

and its block so that a new way of seeing architecture is

concept of Mind-Meandering breaks the limits for people to every detail of space, such as texture and scales,

throughout people's mind. Meantime, as the last step of

visitors to consolidate the states between Tengaiten developed by individuals' feeling.
