Architect Sou Fujimoto designs an sky garden, featuring ice sculptures in an art curation.
Auto-TranslationIn 2022, Tainan grandly opened a standalone cultural and dessert hub, "Nan Cheng." With an emphasis on greenery, design, art, and local culture, it crafts a delightful ice treat story in the sugar capital.
Another attraction from the old house transformation! In Tainan's Central-West District, an 8-story ice cream shop, "Nan Cheng Lòng Story," has opened, blending a sky garden with art curation.
The architecture was designed by renowned Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto, incorporating the concept of "white philosophy." It features a maze space called "Lòng Stairs," where entry is limited by time slots and ticketing for visitors, creating an engaging experience. Additionally, a local Taiwanese team was invited to infuse innovative elements into the ice cream shop through themes inspired by Tainan's alleys, transforming it into a popular spot for shopping and photography.
Before entering Nan Cheng Lòng Story, visitors need to purchase tickets. The entrance is uniquely designed in the alley area, and the overall space spans approximately 745 ping. With the curatorial concept of "Walking in Alley Gaps, Stopping at Alley Flavors," the semi-open outdoor design interacts harmoniously with the surrounding environment. It feels as though the entire building serves as a medium to reestablish Tainan's alleys, providing visitors with various perspectives to appreciate the local scenery.
