We have rich architectural appreciation experience. But obviously ‘appreciation’ cannot help us answer the real questions in our hearts. This is also a very important lesson that is not taught in schools: how to critique architecture. For a long time, Taiwan's architectural industry and academic circles have neglected critics, which has led to a lack of clear subject awareness in architectural speculation. We believe that it is imperative to establish an ‘architecture review platform’ in Taiwan.
Therefore, the Tang II Architectural Criticism Open series was created. This time, in collaboration with Architect Chiu-Hua Wang, with the title of Chung Yuan University Library she participated in the design, everyone is invited to participate, trying to add various other possible comments from the aspects of post-war history, architectural types, and physical senses Viewpoints, providing opportunities for cross-disciplinary exchanges, and trying to create a variety of possibilities for Taiwanese architectural criticism.
