徜徉果嶺的建築詩作：台豐高爾夫俱樂部
繼2014年西薩會所（Siza House）率先啟用之後，相隔六年，嘉卿會所（Chia Ching House）於2020年十月正式落成啟用。以低調、純粹且俐落、乾淨的空間配置在量體虛實之間融入既有的基地紋理，因地制宜地回應高爾夫球場得天獨厚的豐富地貌，並滿足國際級運動賽事需求與尊榮會員休閒娛樂的多項功能。
步移景易：理性與感性
動線規劃是持續成長的本案最艱鉅挑戰之一，主要來自使用者參數的複雜程度與日俱增。藉由巧妙地安排諸項機能，將接待大廳、宴會廣場、超跑俱樂部、餐廳等主要空間和停車、淋浴、廚房、維護等服務空間做出垂直區劃，創造出數個可以駐足停留的廊道及舉辦活動的戶外露台，提供貴賓能夠遠眺八卦山風光的觀景機會。本案方柱採往室內退縮的策略，得以自由地將部份無結構承重作用的牆面做長軸方向的挖空，節省不必要的物料浪費之餘，亦框出了卷軸般一幅又一幅的大地美景，猶如中式園林「步移景易」的視覺饗宴。走進室內，屢見刻意於牆緣壓低的天花板，經由內部的「收」彰顯外部的「放」。
流動空間：厚重與輕盈
如今映入眼簾、看似分散的空間量體雖然各司其職，但實際上多半共用基礎結構與基盤設施，將動線極大化之情況下所產生動輒百米以上的連續牆面，除了採光稍弱處乍現天窗的神來一筆，大幅度設置水平落地窗增加開口面積，藉由複合式節能玻璃將球場綠意盎然的景緻由外向內引導之外，以弱化壓迫感的白色混凝土將渾厚牆體轉化似重若輕，隨時間更迭產生不同的光影韻律，水池樹影搖曳其上更是增添空間詩意。
Architectural poems wandering the greens: Taifong Golf Club
Following the opening of The Siza House in 2014, The Chia Ching House was officially opened in October 2020. With a low-key, pure, neat, and clean spatial configuration, It weaves between the virtual and the physical volume. Responding to the unique and rich landscape of the golf course according to local conditions, it meets the demands of international sports events and the entertainment of honorable members.
Changing Scenery: Reason and Sensibility
One of the most difficult challenges in this design is the management of circulation in a state of continuous spatial expansion and the complexity of varies functional requirements. By the clever arrangement of various functions, the main spaces such as the reception hall, banquet plaza, super-car club, restaurant are vertically divided from service spaces such as parking, shower, kitchen, and maintenanc. This created several corridors where one can stop and wonder. The outdoor terrace for holding events provides VIP guests with a view to the Bagua Mountain. The structural columns are recessed, freely hollowing out non-structural wall in the long axis thus achieving material efficiency. And the hollowed out walls act as viewing apertures. The beautiful scenery of the land unfolds in a spatial layering akin to a Chinese garden. Upon entering the interior, the ceiling is deliberately lowered to create, creating a sense of contraction in the interior spaces and the expansion of the outdoor.
Flowing space: heavy and light
While the scattered spatial volumes have their own functions, there is an underlying structure and base facilities that tie the volumes together. There are 100 meters long continuous walls that express the flow of movement. In dimly lit spaces, skylight are deployed with a stroke of magic. The horizontal floor-to-ceiling windows are installed to greatly increase the opening area. The insulating glass guides the green scenery of the golf course from the outside to the inside. And the white painted exterior walls express both a sense of weight and lightness. These walls produce different rhythms of light and shadow over time, and the swaying shadow of the tree in the pool adds poetic space.
