  1. Danjiang Bridge at Sunset Over the Tamsui River

    A four-photo Reddit gallery catches Danjiang Bridge as its tower and cables cut across a red sunset over the Tamsui River. One frame turns toward Guanyin Mountain, placing the new crossing within the estuary landscape it was designed to preserve.

  2. Zaha Hadid’s Danjiang Bridge Leaves Room for the Sunset

    The 920-meter Danjiang Bridge now links Tamsui and Bali at the mouth of northern Taiwan’s Tamsui River. An interview with its project architect and photographs from a first-crossing event show how the bridge combines a single sculptural tower, a slim steel deck, and unusually restrained infrastructure design.

  3. A Century-Old Tainan House Puts Its Repairs on Display

    A century-old courtyard residence in Tainan has been adapted into an exhibition venue without concealing the difference between its historic fabric and new interventions. Exposed masonry, a folded timber roof, and repairs that emphasize existing cracks turn the building itself into part of the exhibition.

  4. Taipei’s Theater of Stacked Boxes and a Sphere

    OMA won the 2009 competition for Taipei Performing Arts Center with a proposal that joined three theaters to a central cube. Completed in 2022 beside Shilin Night Market, the building carries that early experiment into a public venue for performance and everyday circulation.
