Taipei Story House

Taipei story house is located on the way I go to school. I will see it almost everyday.It’s diffirent from other buildings, it looks like a small catsle. I think that is its charm .

What a dreamy building!

That is the  introduction on Taipei Story House wall.

The first storey of this lovely Western-style building is construe second storey is fashioned in wood. The building’s facade is adorned with branching woodenbeams, in the style of English Tudor-style architecture. The villa like a mini-pagoda, its roof fashioned from copper plates, the surface of which are discolored with a green patina of age.The area over the entrance is adorne red stained glass. Inside the lovely fireplaces, as well as handing lanterns and tiles with floral patterns in bas-relief.

magazine

My aunt is a room designer. She knew that I want to be an architect in the future, so she reconized me to read a magazine, which called “ppaper”.

“ppaper” is a magazine about all thinds of design, not only about architecture, but also clothes, products, and all the fashion things.

This month it introduce an architect who is an Iraqi called Zaha Hadid. She design many streamlined building, but most of them was not build because they will be too expensive to build it.

I love this magazine when I first read it.I think I’ll buy it every month since now.

The architect I respect

Before talking about the buildings that  impress me very much in Taipei, I want to talk about the architect that  I respect.安藤忠雄(あんどう ただお Ando Tadao) is my favorite architect. He is a Japanese and born in Osaka.  He was a boxcar driver and a bruiser before, and he never receive formal education on architecture. He is a primitive architect, and that is one of the reasons I respect him.After Ando finished senior high school in Osaka, he traveled over the world to admire many architectures.  In 1969, He founded his own office.  During 1970s he designed houses, and in 1980s he designed business buildings. After 1990s, he started to design public buildings , art galleries and some big projects. And then, he  used a very special technique called ”清水混凝土” to build some houses and some commercial buildings. “清水混凝土” is a difficult way to build the architectures, but it has esthetic feel. In Japan, it is a very unique skill and only the best architect uses it.In 1995, Ando won “Pritzker Architecture Prize” that is called the Nobel Prize in architect.

I like Mr. Ando not only because his beautiful architecture, but also his hardworking. He did’nt went to the college , but his hardworking made him success.

I wish I can learn something from him, and some day, when I finish my university test, I want to go to Japan to admire his project.

to be an architect

It is my dream to be an architect. I started to love architecture when I was in fifth grade.
When I found some beautiful buildings, I would take a picture of it.
I want to study architecture in Chang Kung University, and then go to Japan to study more because my favorite architect-Mr.Ando lives in Japan, and there are a lot of buildings that he designed in Japan. I want to admire all of them!

taking pictures

I started to take pictures on the hoilday of school’s birthday.In the morning, my mom rode the mortocycle to  take me to take the pictures of the buildings which I find beautiful.We went to  take pictures of Taipei Story House, Taipei Art Muesum, Taipei 101, and the Executive Yuan.When we were on the way to the Executive Yuan, my mom asked me why I want to take pictures of that. I answered because  when I was in fifth grade, I visited the building in a field trip. As soon as I first saw the magnificant building,  I was attracted by it structure and atmosphere. The trip triggered my interests in “architecture.”So it was the beginning of my journey. I will put some pictures since now.
