Preface |
|
Yilan is a county blessed with natural beauty and a rich culture.
It is home to a diverse population and a sound government
concerned with maintaining the beauty of the county. Yilan's
strength lies in its community. Through active participation
and strong cooperation between its citizens and government,
county decisions can be made that fulfill the needs of the
county and its members. Working together, the community of
Yilan will create a successful future.
Yilan County Hall was designed
and constructed with this sense of community in mind. Its
new image strives to replace the unfriendly stereotype of
the traditional public administration building with that of
a welcoming center open to the public.
Artistic yet high-tech, the building promises to become a
local attraction. Designed to complement the natural beauty
of Yilan, its visitors will be rewarded with a spectacular
view of Turtle Island from the building's rooftop observation
deck. At Yilan County Hall,
all visitors are honored guests.
The design of the space and facilities of the building reflects
a traditional cultural past. This merging of past and present
styles reminds all of Yilan's rich past as it moves towards
creating a prosperous future. |

Relocation History of Yilan’s County Government |
|
Built during the end of the Ching Dynasty, the construction
of the Gemalan Government Building, as the building was once
called, established Yilan as a territory within the national
government's governing region. During the Japanese occupation
years later, the building, now known as the Yilan Government
Building served as the colonial government's center of power.
After the restitution, the holds of the previous two county
governments faded and Yilan strengthened its own vision and
influence.

County Government Center Urban Area |
|
The County Government Center Urban Area was
designed to complement the relocation of the administration
building. The area covers approximately 238 hectares in total.
The main development sector, which features a fair amount of
public facilities, occupies 112 hectares of the area. The atmosphere
of this sector is green, friendly, and urban and is suitable
for work, living, and recreation.
Located in the heart of the planned area, Yilan County Hall is joined by the relocated County Council Building,
the Local Court, and the District Attorney's Office. Together
these buildings comprise the main administration center of the
County Government Center Urban Area and establish the area within
the structures of modern democratic political models of urban
planning. |

People First: Easy Access |
|
Yilan County Hall has 29 exits. This not only provides
visitors with easy access to the building, but also breaks
its past image of a heavily guarded public administrative
building. The atmosphere inside is comfortable and amiable,
with plenty of sunshine, fresh air, and water. The interior
was designed with a "people first" mentality. This
can be seen by the people-friendly facilities, such as the
main lobby, the center yard, and the rooftop garden, which
are all open to the public for leisure, waiting, and relaxation. |

A Green Experience: One with Nature |
|
Yilan County Hall blends in with its natural surroundings.
Visitors can relax in the rooftop garden or in the partially
outdoor basement terrace and enjoy the greenery of the adjacent
hills or the sunset in the surrounding pond. A stop in Union
Strength Square promises a view of Turtle Island in the east.
Whether one comes to the building for business or pleasure,
a natural experience is guaranteed. |

Localized Design: A Mix of Sun, Wind, and Rain |
|
The building was designed to benefit from the local climate. Sunshine
and rainfall are directed into the center yard. The windmill-shaped
plain and natural well create a "chimney" effect,
resulting in well-ventilated spaces within the building. Conventional
local construction materials were used to give the impression
of a South Fukien-style house, with slanted eaves, a tile roof,
brick walls, and a porch. The design is warm and inviting unlike
traditional government buildings of the past. |

Art Meets Nature: Memories of Our Past |
|
The Union Strength Monument delivers a powerful impression of Yilan's
past. Surrounding the monument are giant hinoke trees, while
at its entrance a screen panel of Japanese cypresses is on display.
Yilan’s history and heritage are presented on calligraphy tablets
and sculptures exhibited in the center hallway as memories of
the county's past. |
