National Taichung Theater is located
in Xitun District, Taochung. It is a very characteristic performance area. The
theater is designed by Japanese architect Toyo Ito. Using the concept of the primitive caves and holes, Toyo Ito designed
the world first and only Sound Cave Curved Wall for National Taichung Theater.
There are no vertical
and horizontal structures and
it’s the world’s first curve surfaced hanging structure architect. Due to the complexity, it is known as the most difficult
architect to complete. Five years and NT$ 4.36 billion, the theater finally
open in November 23rd, 2014. The theater is organized into a large theater,
medium theater and experimental stage, which hold up to more than 3000 guests.
During the urban renewal inTaichung , Taichung
city government tried get the Guggenheim
Museum to join the museum project in Taichung
After 5 years and NT$ 4.36 billion devoted in, the theater finally completed and the process of building the hardest architect was documented by foreign press. The theater was designated as a national degree performance center and was nominated as one of the World’s New 9 Landmarks. The first opening show “Cat Man” is performed by Ming Hwa Yuan Arts & Cultural Group.
The theater structure high 37.7 meters, 2 underground levels and 6 floors above ground. It is built with steel and concrete with the concepts of the primitive state of human livings, caves and holes. The structure consists of 58 curved surfaces, very difficult to construct. It is referred as the hardest building to be constructed. Interior designed with a large theater (2014 guests), medium theater (800 guests), and experimental stage (200 guests). Not just the main building but the surroundings is designed to correspond with Sound Cave Curved Walls.
The acoustic engineering was carefully designed. In the large theater, guests will see the round curve on the ceiling; this will reflect the sounds perfectly in every angle to every seat. A cat walk is organized on the top for maintenance purposes. The view to the stage will not be blocked in anyway. Everything is designed to what a theater may need in the best way. The exterior shapes like a tea pot during the day with the extraordinary curves. When the night falls, lightings will put the theater under the spot light.
