This project started from the water in my hometown. I tried to use a public facility to describe the multiple relationships between residents, visitors, and communities in daily life.

Compared to Anping , Wu-Chi is a brand new area; In the eyes of travelers, it’s an unknown island surrounded by water; in the minds of residents, it’s just a small part of Tainan. In Wu-Chi, there’s a forgotten corner. This disappeared corner is just across from the old city of Tainan; There is an old activity center in this area that needs to be rebuilt. This center is also located in an extremely awkward position, between the new avenue and the old residential area, and it’s also the junction of the old Tainan and Wu-Chi.

The building is divided into four parts to describe the interrelationship of the space, creating a state that can’t be easily defined. The inexplicable space above, people don’t know how to get there, the unknown box in the middle , we don’t know how to get there; the space below is indoor but also outdoor. Looking at the space in the building, different people will produce different interpretations on their own. Viewed from an urban perspective, this building is an interface for entering the community; and when we come to the highest floor, we see This is by no means the scenery that a swimming pool will see. We can overlook the canal and the old city on the opposite side. The swimming pool becomes a new node in Tainan. We no longer come to the swimming pool as a way of entering sports facilities, but come to the pool with the mentality of entering an urban plaza.
