Awards

• 2014 Taiwan Landscape Architecture Awards
• 2009 Taoyuan County Landscape Awards – Special Award for Living Space Creation 

Guangfeng Park occupies approximately 1.6 hectares in Bade District, Taoyuan City, on the former site of Guang Feng Industrial’s textile factory. As the area transitioned from industrial use to a mixed commercial and residential district, the park was created as an important public open space that balances urban development, enriches community life, and enhances environmental quality.

Inspired by Taoyuan’s distinctive landscape of ponds and irrigation canals, as well as Guang Feng’s historic roots in the textile industry, the design combines the motifs of water, greenery, and weaving to create a vibrant urban park. A large central pond and expansive green spaces form the park’s core, providing ecological, recreational, and social functions for the surrounding community.
