To catch the attention, the team is delivering the value of senses for the audiences and participants. This is initiated from the human nature, moving forward the sustainable environment.

Based on this mountainous island, Taiwan, naturally, the residents’ consciousness of Satoyama has been formed.
The event of “Born On the Island, Holitic Satoyama”, inspiring the audiences spiritually and deeply, influenced by the forests.

Project Innovation/Need

The Taiwan Lantern Festival is a short-term celebration and the Lantern Festival that the people of Taiwan look forward to. From scratch to return to normal, it often creates a lot of carbon footprint; therefore, the team has built a permanent or short-term non-recyclable device in the past and proposed that it can be completely Disassemble and recycle the device. This new natural text is not for optimizing traditional imagination, but for dialogue on a sustainable environment in the future after the epidemic. In the field of the lantern festival, the trajectories of the two are used with "agricultural life" and "civil participation" and the sparks of creators, in contrast to the colorful lights and lamp groups in the past, and use "light" and "shadow" to show high efficiency and Creative and artistic context.

Design Challenge

From the forest, we can see the development of the country’s culture and society, and find another possibility for Taiwan’s future. Learning how to communicate and get along with the forest will be an important topic.

Instead of the traditional lantern model in the past, we have taken respect for the sustainability of the natural environment as the subject. For the first time in history, we tried to use the architectural curatorial model, combined with natural language and art, and under the premise of natural symbiosis and sustainable development, we tried new materials in After the lantern festival, it can be completely disassembled and recycled, realizing the Satoyama spirit of harmonious coexistence with nature.

Sustainability

Overturning the mass-manufacturing model repeatedly carried out by the annual lantern festival in the past, based on the wooden structure, the device can be completely disassembled and recycled to the local community for service at the end of the lantern festival based on the wooden structure, and the land can be restored. This combination of traditional celebrations and natural geography into a new natural text, from mountains to woods, with the cross-border cooperation of architects, craftsmen, and artists, responds to the natural ecology and the humanities behind to form a new landscape aesthetic.
