OverWhelming Geometry

RTA-Office’s entry for Kaohsiung Port Terminal Competition reinvents the topography of this Taiwanese waterfront. Building emerges as a colossal geographical element, establishing the idea of a new and improved landscape. Santiago Parramon’s stunning new architectural statement re-examines relationship between contemporary user and the object – being obsessively engaged into condensed and constantly changing scenery, users actually avoid devoting themselves to anything in particular. In order to overcome the issue, overwhelming geometry, along with restless skin of the building, requires additional attention of the consumer and higher level of mental engagement.
