Please describe the project specifications

The Canopy in JiaobanShan Park is designed with the hat of Taiwan Taiya minority as the design concept. The red, white and black diamond totem symbolizes the eyes of the ancestral spirit. It means that the ancestral spirit will protect the Taiya people forever.
In recent years, local cultural tourism has developed rapidly. The local government created a juicy peach festival on JiaoBan hill. They need build an iconic canopy for some commercial show.


What is unique or complex about the project?

The client requires red, white and black diamond totem symbolizes printing on double-side, and need to be guaranteed high accuracy. The canopy is 3D curved surface, so our engineer must mark lots of reference points in model to generate printing cutting pattering to ensure totem could fit the correct position.
The project has become the most distinctive landmark and integrated into the local characteristics well.
