NL architects: TPAC taipei performing art center proposal

NL architects have designed the taipei performing arts center aiming to make the building accessible to everybody. the public character of the center is guaranteed by the elevation of a substantial part of its program, creating a public square underneath it. as such the square becomes part of the building inside of it.
the design which could be considered to a table with ‘four legs’ supports a ‘tabletop’ that accommodates 3 storeys. inside you’ll find an elevated fragment of the city, a public browsing space where cultural facilities such as a multimedia library, music stores, galleries, lobbies, bars, restaurants and clubs will be included.
balconies and terraces with different programs will also be included in the space consisting of swimming pools, a skate area, playground, hotel garden and cafe.
the performing arts center structure will contain three theaters: a 1500 seat grand theater and two 800 seat theaters for repertory performances. the theaters are positioned on different altitudes. the proscenium playhouse is placed at the base of the southeast ‘leg’. the lobby is placed under this theater so that it is flush with the square activating the space around it. the multiform theater is connected to the southwest leg close to the top. the volume of the grand theater is suspended under the horizontal slab. it hovers over the square while being part of it.

The winner of this TPAC competition is Rem Koolhaas and Ole Scheeren…
so NL = Nishizawa lyue?
Gorgeous design, looks like one of MC Escher’s designs. 2 problems: (1) acoustics – in such a huge structure, the noise would have been disastrous (2) no sun for several of the cubes, although they did leave some of the roof open.
Those 2 things killed the project.
This just looks waaaay too much like Nishizawa’s work altough it lacks its lightness… Actually more like a cross breed between Nishizawa visuals and OMA’s CCTV disposition of program.
Anyway, lots of fun 🙂
That looks so cool, what an awe inspiring building plan.
Must be a great architect, although the building doesn’t look very firefighter safe.
Its so sharp, it hurts!
Wow, Incredible Architecture!

elevators on the outside. that is so cool. it’s beautiful. but do people not think about terrorists or insane criminals in their own country? it’s an awesome target. that sh*t has got to be bullet proof. i’m not a criminal, but I watch enough movies and read enough action novels to make me want to make a comment like that.
Lego and acid, love it
I liked the idea of creating a space in side the building which not exactly interior to accommodate the main purpose of the building: Performing Arts. But the designer might have forgotten to analyze the real time rain and sun, more so the rain, it just doesn’t drop straight down; and in such a huge voids it will certainly not as straight as shown in the rain-sun diagram.
Anyways nice effort of adapting OMA’s CCTV building programing style.
Those free-floating stairs would be lovely for people with a fear of heights!
