Use "roots" as the design concept, symbolizing the origin of furniture materials—wood—while also representing the idea of a "network" to reflect the industry's digital transformation. Therefore, all designs will revolve around the warehouse as the starting point, as the first step in furniture manufacturing always begins with sourcing raw materials from the warehouse. The extending "roots" will connect all furniture production spaces while preserving green areas and pathways to support urban sustainability and environmental protection.
01 "The interwoven spaces create frame-like voids, allowing the sculptural furniture components to interact with the space, resulting in a unique spatial experience."
02 "An open design not only brings natural breeze and light into the building but also provides trainees with a spacious and open green area for free learning and interaction."
OLD & NEW
new buildings integrate with and blend into old structures, revitalizing areas that have lost their vitality by giving them new functions.
