Underlying behind the locked circle ribbons around the clubhouse is a heartbeat created through good sustainable design.
The interdependent relationship between one living matter and the other creates an ecological symbiosis that forms an unending loop. Drawing its inspiration from nature and its surrounding interactions, the main idea of the Green Places Community Clubhouse anchors on connectivity. From one space to another, people will be able to react with its surroundings; whether it is with the building, the natural topography outside or the transitional spaces.
“I see this building as a living being,” cites Keng-Fu Lo, chief designer of the Green Places Community Clubhouse. The project is situated in Tainan, Taiwan; a soon-to-be latest buzzing art hub in the country. Over the years, Tainan has witnessed a design-centric growth in its art scene with multiple cultural parks and revitalisation collaborations with some of the biggest design names in the country. Today, the clubhouse adds on another new fibre of creativity in the list of interesting must-go places in the city.
It’s conceptual design is rather straightforward but impactful. Looking at the different terrestrial elevations and land folds, Lo patterns the building’s profile using a simplified version of his point of views. From the converging tree branches that form the interesting crisscrossed structures by the poolside to the extruded zoning that is inspired by the layering of highland plantations, Lo puts together a beautiful interpretation of connection between spaces in his own design language.
