該項目最初的直觀想法是……

在主要由垂直建筑組成的環境中，我們的塔樓如同西班牙的“卡斯特拉爾”一樣向上生長。通過其形態，建筑物向城市景觀敞開。

從松樹林的形象出發，建筑以垂直密度概念逐漸消失于天空，并通過其反射性輕柔地融入其中。

在該項目的早期階段，照片拼貼和繪畫碎片在表現上具有重要意義。這些拼貼有助于理解塔樓的形象及其與項目背景之間的關系。我們開始研究立面概念如何與項目主要理念相聯系。

思想與建造之間對話開始了……

一個連續外觀、一種材料和植被關系基礎上發展出了蒙特雷雪松立面處理方案。

立面處理采用一系列大型窗戶，使其成為附近景觀吸引人之處。每天清晨和夜晚，塔樓都會呈現不同“形態”。這種效果是通過使用不銹鋼分隔條、玻璃、印花玻璃、反光玻璃和不銹鋼百葉窗等材料實現的。

地下室開發了一個獨特公共空間，將建筑降至地面，在不同維度打造城市景觀。新公共城市規劃優先考慮行人，并試圖將公眾流暢引入空間，使之變得活躍起來。底層出現了一些休閑場所，并始終結合著綠色和樹木，在自然風光中營造出讓行人感到與自然持續接觸的氛圍。

The first intuitive idea for the project…

In surroundings composed mainly of vertical buildings appears our tower， growing upwards like the spanish ‘castellars’. The building opens itself to the urban landscape by its form.

Starting from the image of a pine tree forest， the building transforms itself with the idea of vertical density and gently starts to disappear into the sky through its reflectivity.

Photomontages and drawing fragments， have a great importance in the representation of the Taichung Tower， in a early phase these collages helped to understand the figure of the tower and its relation to the context of the project. We started studying how the facade concept could be connected with the main ideas for the project.

The beginning of the dialogue between thouht and construction…

One continuos appearance， one material and a relationship to vegetation， a facade base don Monterrey cypress was developed.

The facade treatment uses a series of large windows making it attractive for nearby views. The tower acquires a different ‘shape’ every morning and every night. This effect is posible by the materials that are used a facade made of stainless steel mullions， glass， printed glass， reflective glass and stainless steel louvers.

At the basement an unique public space was developed， which lowers the construction to the ground， to forma an urban landscape in different dimensions. The new public urban planning prioritizes the pedestrians and tries to bring the public fluidy to the space， so that it becomes alive. In the ground floor level some leisure situations appear， always combined with the presence of green and tres， trying to reproduce a natural scenery， so that the pedestrians get the sensation that they are in constant contact with nature.
