Bio-Architecture Formosana and Taipei 101 collaborate to create a circular economy Sky Park!
Taipei 101, the tallest building in Taiwan, is a vertical living community. According to statistics, there are approximately 13,000 employees entering and leaving Taipei 101 every day. In order to provide tenants with better services and convenience, there are two major considerations in the planning of Sky Park, one is safety control, and the other is to improve the living functions of the tenants. There were many foreign restaurants and tourists on the 35th floor, and it was difficult to control the flow of people. In order to allow tenants to have a more private and secluded space to rest, the building safety was the first consideration, re-planned and built to provide convenience, Services such as coffee, 7-11, laundry, and telecom operators.
Break linear consumption and move towards a circular economy
From the first phase to the second phase of the Sky Park living service area, we reduced the decoration waste. Many door panels, bookshelves, office furniture, furniture and even the original Sky Tree were relocated and reused accordingly. The decoration presents a unique spatial style. These spatial objects also carry the history and memory of this floor, so that there is a deep connection between the space and the workers.
In addition, we implemented the “rent, not purchase” service on the 35th floor, with furnitures (IKEA), lamps (Philips), and plants (floral space). Manufacturers provide the furniture and products required by Taipei 101, regularly inspect, repair and replace them, breaking the traditional furniture “manufacturing-buying-using-discarding” model, and realizing the (product as a service) concept of a circular economy.
