Terracotta Grille Cultural Building: Porous Skin and Internal Void

A cultural building by the sea, with a main body that is a horizontally elongated volume, topped by a thin vertical slab tower, together forming an inverted T-shape. The skin of the horizontal volume is made of dark terracotta extruded bricks, formed into hollow louvers, with spacing and angle varying according to the facade's orientation; the surface of the vertical slab tower, on the other hand, has slender LEDs embedded, completely invisible during the day. The base of the building recedes to create a 6-meter-deep eaves space, with the floor continuous with the seaside promenade. The sea is in the foreground, and the skyline of the opposite bank is in the background. Diffused light on an overcast day clearly reveals the color and texture of the terracotta. Avoid: using metal or glass for the skin, making the volume a single square box, adding curved shapes, depicting it as a night scene with lights on.

一棟臨海的文化建築,主體是一個橫向的扁長量體,上方立著一片薄的垂直板樓,兩者構成一個倒 T 形。橫向量體的外皮是深色的陶土擠出磚,做成中空的百葉狀,間距與角度隨立面方位改變;垂直板樓的表面則嵌入細長的 LED,白天完全看不出來。建築底部退縮出一圈深 6 公尺的簷下空間,地坪與海濱步道連續。海在前景,對岸的天際線在背景。陰天的散射光,讓陶土的顏色與質地清楚呈現。避免:外皮使用金屬或玻璃、量體做成單一的方盒、加入曲線造型、拍成夜間點燈的狀態。
