ARCHITECTURE LIST:

Designed by Marco Casagrande, the Chen House is sited on Datun Mountains, North-Taiwan. This small house constructed with mahogany and concrete and designed as a vessel to react on the demanding wind, flooding and heat conditions on the site. Aimed to give the farmers a needed shelter, the house is not closing the environment out. The house is not strong or heavy – it is weak and flexible.
