A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything.

Since the Taichung City Government redeveloped the original ShuiNan Airport site, everything around has become about real estate. What seems like urban planning is, in reality, just erasing everything. Although it appears to create a park, it has, in fact, distanced people from nature. The land has become barren and cracked due to prolonged exposure and neglect.
We have noticed the educational significance of water and would like to take this opportunity to showcase the water cycle to the public. Given the high evaporation rate in Taichung, we have calculated the unit area and selected plant species with high transpiration rates to demonstrate this process.
Site + Plan:
The geometric shape on the site is square, promoting natural exposure.
The geometric shape in a circular form is artificially manipulated.
In my opinion human could not manipulate nature , espcially for the people who only cherish their own profit.
