TREASURE
GARDEN TOWER
TAICHUNG
– INTERIORS
This iconic tower of luxury apartments makes part of the rapidly developing 7th District in Taichung, Taiwan and its lighting both interior and outdoor contributed to its visibility. Citterio Viel introduced a landmark made of strong Italian design references and qualities.
Along with the high-end residential units, the building accommodates also Public Spaces in the Ground Floor and the first two levels.
The diamond shaped pattern covering the façade dominates also the interior design, paying homage to the Italian Masters, from Giò Ponti to Piero Portaluppi. Grazing light on the main architectural element, the high lozenge covered stone walls, reveals the grandeur of the space and the leitmotif expanded in the rest of the interior design.
The Spa is located in the 2nd Level and one of the main elements is the scenic ceiling feature above the pool. The golden shimmering mosaics covered surface receives cool light from a concealed lighting cove on top, creating the impression of a natural skylight, playing with the guest’s perception.
In the residential units, large portion of the ceiling becomes luminous with indirect lighting coves. The technology used for this first layer of lighting, is dynamic white LED, so that the guest can simulate the cool light temperature early in the morning, and move to warmer colour temperature towards the evening.
Integrating light in the architecture, from the large scale to the millwork details in strong collaboration with the architect, creates the best opportunity to elevate the original vision into a unique space, with sophisticated features and high comfort.
