TNFSH Gymnasium

BUDGET
$5M - 10M
SITE ANALYSIS
The National Tainan First Senior High School (NTFSH) Gymnasium
project is located at the heart of the cultural axis in the city of Tainan
where its adjacent institutions includes the well-known National Cheng-Kung
University, the University of Tainan as well as many historical landmarks that
are more than a hundred years old.  The
site provides opportunities to bridge the past with the present together in a
form of a built landscape which would incorporate sustainable strategy for the
gymnasium itself as well as to the surrounding environment with better shading
and natural ventilation strategy.
 
Design Concept
The program calls for a gymnasium that would house two international
standard basketball courts, a semi-outdoor basketball court, a fitness center, a
table tennis room and a Chinese martial arts room.  The building would also feature a total
number of eighteen hundred seats all together for the indoor sports along with a
state-of-the-art control room and a VIP lounge. 
With a wide variety of spaces required for this new facility, a long
span structure is essential and crucial to provide high-quality sports space
for its students and the community.  The concept
for the building begins with the semi-outdoor basketball court on the first
floor which requires a column-free space that measures sixteen meters in width
and forty meters in length.  The
immediate program above this space would be another two international standard
basketball courts that would also require another column-free space which
measures forty meters in width and fifty-six meters in length.  With several long-span structure requirement
for the spaces mentioned, a building that act like a bridge on all sides of
elevation became the solution for lifting the large floor slabs without having
to insert columns in the middle of the gymnasium.  A ribbon like bracing member was then
developed to weave the form into one single mass with rhythmic movement that
depicts the very essence of its function – sports.
