what is it?
A business design hotel in Taipei’s Nangang district, a neighbourhood shaped by tea production and historical harbour, and now known for high-tech industries
what makes it cool?
Inspired by Nangang’s Pouchong tea culture, the interiors merge tradition with modernity. The reception lounge reflects Taiwanese tea table settings, while bold materials and colours drawn from local life and history create a unique spatial identity within a modest budget.
