ARCHITECTURE / GALLERY
The building features a pure white palette as the main color, complemented by green plants and blue skies. Bold curves and separated spaces are employed in the structure, with ample space left between the volumes to create visual breathing room. Avant-garde and stylish, yet elegant, it invites passersby to take a second look.

Entrance full of greenery. Visitors need to climb a small staircase and make a turn to enter the building.
Low shrubs separate the street from the interior space, preserving privacy without blocking the light.
The arc-shaped design of the building extends into the indoor ceiling. The high ceiling magnifies the sense of space and makes the space less rigid.
The architect said that Linsen N. Rd. holds a complex history and culture, which is why most of the buildings here have an old appearance. In this somewhat dim area, a lush green park remains, with natural greenery adding a breath of fresh air to the surroundings. Three delicate white sheets of paper gently fell, forming a box upon landing. When the paper bends under pressure, it appears concave from the outside and convex from the inside, just like the curves in this project. The exterior walls are made of PVC pipes cut in half and painted, presented in a folded manner. When sunlight filters through, the shadows of the trees dance. The concept of concave and convex origami extends into the interior as well, with a beautifully clean curved ceiling, about five meters high, elegantly draping down. The simple use of seam separation and ambient lighting merges origami art with the space design.
洪政鉉建築師說“林森北路擁有複雜的歷史與文化,使得當地多數為舊屋的模樣,在這略顯黯淡的地方,留下一片綠意盎然的公園,天然的綠植為環境增添呼吸的空間,三張輕飄飄的純白紙張落地成盒。 當紙受到壓力彎曲時,從外側看是內凹,內側看則是外凸,此案的弧形方向也是如此;外牆是用PVC管剖半噴漆,運用摺疊的方式呈現,當陽光灑落,樹影婆娑;內凹外凸的摺紙概念也同樣延伸到室內,挑高約五米的天花板是一面漂亮乾淨的弧形垂落,簡單地運用脫縫手法加上環境照明讓摺紙藝術與空間設計融合一起。“
The architectural design concept extends into the interior reception space, leaving an even more profound impression.
The building, surrounded by greenery, significantly reduces the visual impact it imposes.
