The condition for this proposal by Hyunjoon Yoo Architects for the Taichung City Cultural Center competition is very unique and original since two distinct buildings, library and fine arts museum, should coexist in one site. For the architectural design that fulfills this exclusive condition, the architects applied the notion of “Taiji”, the verity of yin and yang that has existed since the ancient era of Chinese history.
The surface of the library wall that penetrates the art museum has been designed as a bookshelf, from where people get to look over the art museum once they create view frame by taking away the books from the bookshelf.The library – the rational space – and the art museum – the space of sensibility – can therefore communicate through this visual relationship that has been established by the architectural input.
