The Aesthetic Medical Clinic in Taoyuan, Taiwan, reimagines industrial heritage by drawing inspiration from historical flour factories. Its design features large columns and lush greenery, fostering harmony between humanity and nature. A central patio allows sunlight to create a vertical forest ambiance, reflecting seasonal changes. The entrance's Water Ripple Device and mechanical light tubes produce an underwater effect. This design creates an organic, migratory space where visitors can find sanctuary amidst urban memories, blending past narratives with a harmonious future.
The designer make architecture under roof. The designers believe space should return to a state yet to be defined, a realm of imagination untouched; from this purity, they embark on a journey—establishing a new order from prototypes. UNDER ROOF originated from the block experiment Siacuu. Since 2016, they have collaborated with NGOs to revitalize idle spaces through community engagement. In 2021, UNDER ROOF are founded to deconstruct contemporary modes of living, which led to the development of three types of spatial design initiatives. 1.)NEXT Housing: Innovative Residential Spaces 2)Workspace Redesign: Office Environments for the Post-Pandemic Era 3)Experience Economy: Innovative Retail Spaces Shaped by the Experience Economy
Underroof is a design studio founded by two young architects in winter 2021. Faced with the increasing improvement of urban planning, architects began to find use in more subtle spaces. How to find new ones in existing buildings that are in line with the order of users has become our goal. We make architecture under roof.
