Dali Jade in Bamboo Grove

Inspired by the image of hiding in a bamboo grove beyond the bustling city, this project was initiated under the mission of reinterpreting luxurious world-class residential buildings in the heart of Taichung.
In Chinese culture, bamboo is a symbol of the knowledgeable gentleman and of promising progress, and has therefore been chosen to represent the cultural depth of Taichung City and correspond to the lush Parklane located nearby. The image of bamboo, with its slim figure and evenly-spaced nodes, is recreated using a 3:2:1 ratio, with round corners on the facade, portraying both softness and strength. The bamboo characteristic of hollow culms with nodes is achieved by solid metal panels paired with transparent frameless glass balcony railings. Including several artistic sculptures, stones, landscaping, and an outdoor pool, the fashionable public areas pursue the Japanese bonsai aesthetic and allow the indoor and outdoor to mingle.
