In Chaozhou Township, Pingtung County, a brand-new community creation program is changing the shape of the land uniquely. The project is a collaboration between the local government, academic institutions, and community residents to reshape the community with "reginal revitalzation" as the core. The project includes the Wonderland of Art, the Goat Barn Art Post, and the Children's Book House. These places are connected to the entire Chaozhou Township and revitalized through the participation of residents. The project is a holistic community regeneration plan that incorporates bamboo weaving, focuses on material selection and weather ability, and connects to the vitality of the community.
The Chaozhou Township has been famous for its opera culture since ancient times. Bamboo weaving plays an integral role in this land. The project integrates bamboo weaving into the renovation, demonstrating the importance of bamboo in the local culture and its low-carbon features to show the harmony between art and eco-friendliness. Bamboo rattan and bamboo shells are used for seating and chandeliers, while solid wood is used as a durable material for bookshelves, wooden trestles, and platforms. The project embodies the concept of being environmentally friendly while respecting the local culture.
