Design Concept
The design concept merges traditional Chinese roof eave curves with modern structural language. Dense steel curved beams shape the form, allowing natural daylight to filter through gaps, creating dynamic interior light and shadow changes throughout the day.
The complex consists of three main volumes:
Conference Center: Features a 1,200-seat vineyard-style concert hall and a 480-seat theater with adjustable reflective ceilings to enhance acoustic quality and performance. It is Northern Taiwan’s first vineyard-style concert hall.
Youxiang Memorial Hall: Dedicated to Xu Youxiang, founder of the Far Eastern Group, housing cultural relics, public exhibitions, and educational functions.
Arts Center: Serves as a cultural exhibition and creative base supporting various on- and off-campus arts activities.
