When staying in Tainan, besides choosing hotels or traditional houses, you might want to try a civilian home that exudes a minimalist design style—understated yet with irresistible charm. That would be “Wuzhai,” transformed from a civilian residence.

The inconspicuously located Wuzhai may appear low-key and free of excessive decoration from the outside, but it is actually the work of renowned architect Mao Senjiang. He specially incorporated two major elements—exposed concrete and washed stone—into the design, giving off a fresh and neat vibe. The purity of the exposed concrete emphasizes the concept of blending into the natural landscape, using natural light and shadow to enhance the indoor ambiance. The window lattice design allows sunlight to flood the space. A slice of sky, towering bamboo shadows, cascading waterfalls, and a Japanese-style garden come together to form an architectural masterpiece with exceptional design aesthetics—a green building.
