Nature Canvas
Nature Canvas is a sales center in Taichung with a total area of 495.86 square meters. The design is inspired by Uluru in Australia and by the cave dwellings of ancient times. The building forms a large stone-like volume clad with fiber cement board and painted with ceramic paint, which imitates a rough rock surface and adds weather and stain resistance. The white volume acts as a canvas for sunlight and shadow. Hexagonal openings with inlaid metal frames and a rhombus lattice, modularized by digital die cutting, shift in appearance with the changing light.

The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design award which recognizes superior design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
