Hanging light in the reception area

Excess Electrical Conduit Became a Light Fixture That's Full of Highlights.

Leftover metal pipes such as electrical conduit, water pipes and sewage pipes from construction sites were recycled, and then mixed and matched in a creative way to create a deconstructed assembly of parts.

The Holes Left Behind by Nails Are Marks of Glory

Material source:

Dome construction project, ordinary residential project

Material features:

Leftover matte titanium sheets from the dome construction project were fashioned into the Farglory logo by the entrance near the stairwell

Each grid of recycled formwork is a unit. The grids are all made of various kinds of construction waste and parts, and were hand-glued by the META Design team, with a total of 600 cells in the artwork.
Each unit represents a family, and each part implies that each family is made up of people with different personalities.
The artwork symbolizes the concept of families forming a community, then neighborhoods, and finally a city, going from small to large.
Its imagery is meant to evoke a bird’s-eye view of the Taipei Basin under the night sky, with the bright areas representing the busy streets, the gray areas the suburbs, and the green areas the natural environment.

The waste materials and parts were glued on by hand.

The dome construction project | A story about the matte titanium sheets


The dome project attracted a lot of attention in Taiwan, from its construction to the shape of the building, especially the structure of the roof, which was once ridiculed as resembling a toilet. Nearby residents also complained about light pollution.
However, to do its best to address public concerns, the Farglory team installed curtains for nearby schools and residences, and painted the titanium sheets with anti-reflective coating, which was a first in the world. The team even conducted operations at height, which was very difficult. After two coating projects, the team finally succeeded in the development of a coating that was compatible with titanium sheets, could withstand the elements, and was effective at reducing the amount of light that is reflected from the sheets.
