Design Concept
Blending the elegant curves of traditional Chinese rooflines with modern structural expression, the design features a dense arrangement of curved steel beams. Natural daylight filters through the gaps between these beams, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow that shifts with the passage of time.
Architectural Composition
The complex is composed of three main buildings:
• Conference Center
Featuring a 1,200-seat vineyard-style concert hall and a 480-seat drama theater, both equipped with adjustable acoustic reflectors to enhance sound quality and performance. This will be the first vineyard-style concert hall in northern Taiwan.
• Yo Siang Memorial Hall
Dedicated to the founder of the Far Eastern Group, Mr. Xu Yo-Siang, this building houses cultural artifacts, public exhibitions, and educational facilities.
• Art Center
Designed as a platform for exhibitions and artistic creation, the center supports a wide range of cultural and artistic activities both within and beyond the campus.
