RESEARCH ABSTRACT: We found that using traditional materials helps users feel closer.
So we used traditional terrazzo and walnut wood to make the space warmer and more relaxing.
In fact, after the actual business, the customer's response was also very good.
CHALLENGE: We combine walnut wood with traditional terrazzo, and will not be disturbed by the weather near Taiwan, creating a new way of using traditional materials.
