Text description by

Won through an international design and build competition, the Kaohsiung Exhibition Centre was the first harbour redevelopment project undertaken in Taiwan’s port city of Kaohsiung.

The winning concept emphasised Kaohsiung’s strong relationship with the sea, being Taiwan’s largest harbour city. The design is a dramatic wave-like structure, befitting of the maritime precinct.

Key to the design was the introduction of a public street that links the city to the waterfront through the centre of the facility. A truly hybrid facility – the building combines exhibition and convention in a single integrated space, allowing the centre flexibility to host varying events and meetings simultaneously.

About

Cox Architecture:

Our practice is built around designers that collaborate with clients, stakeholders and communities. We are By the Many, For the Many. COX seeks to do more with less, tapping into resourceful Australian culture to build value through ingenuity. We strive for quality through our beliefs in equality and opportunity. We embed culture in our designs, taking time to listen and understand cultural context and social impacts. We continuously seek the brightest minds to innovate design, process, and typology. We welcome collaboration, from both traditional and disruptive sources, should it have the potential to contribute to better design. Our history in Australian architecture began with the transformative Tocal Agricultural College in New South Wales. Epitomising the renowned Sydney School, the project had a deep and sensitive understanding of context and place, blended with honest and expressive structure and craft. This has informed the work of COX ever since. This history has established key principles we continue to prioritise today. One being the planning of cities and design of buildings that are adaptable to change – cultural, social, technological, and economic. The other is the creation of sustainable spaces – environmental strategies that are embedded, rather than added, to our designs. Today, we have offices across Australia and New Zealand, working on projects of international significance. Our team brings experience and enthusiasm to every new project and client. Our projects demonstrate a dedication to research as well as an ability to work with clients to deliver successful design solutions on time and budget. What we bring to our work transcends design. Our innovative technology and structural design solutions place emphasis and value on the design of core elements. Our structures designed as destinations to bring people together to share experiences that are unique to their time and place. source: coxarchitecture.com.au
