Award-winning designer Hung Ju Chen transforms a former shopping mall into a pet-friendly, light-filled space in Taipei, Taiwan
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Hung Ju Chen's Sunshine Plant Nature project is a stunning transformation of a former shopping mall space into a pet-friendly, light-filled commercial area in Taipei, Taiwan. The design concept draws inspiration from Scandinavian flair, emphasizing natural and green elements while maintaining an open and airy feeling inside. The project was completed in June 2021, offering a unique space for pet owners to interact with their pets and learn how to prepare fresh food in a stylish environment.
The 132 square meter space features a concealed storage room that leverages the concept of a birdcage mesh to create a lighting effect, effectively raising the ceiling height. The use of light army green color, curved shapes, and an open terrace design establishes a deeper connection between the interior and exterior space, exuding the characteristics and ambiance of the enterprise.
The project incorporates bendable boards, titanium plated metal, spc flooring, Italian special paint, system panels, terrazzo, steel parts, peg boards, silestone, and lacquered glass to realize the unique design. The space also includes a Teaching Area, bar table, and storage room, providing a versatile environment for both pets and their owners.
Chen's design approach carefully considers the landscape environment, creating a spatial experience that is not bound by set conventions. The project also overcame technical challenges related to air conditioning duct distribution, ensuring a seamless integration of functionality and aesthetics.
Through the boundary relationship between openness and medium, the space concept of virtual and real transformation is formed, reflecting the unpretentious naturalism. The project was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in 2023, recognizing its outstanding and creatively ingenious design that authenticates experience and resourcefulness.
