光復南路與忠孝東路間原是舊廢鐵道再利用改建為停車場，停車場地下化後取而代之的是悠閑的人行步道與豐富的植栽綠帶。診所位於建物二樓，候診區外牆水平帶開窗正好如同指尖可以輕觸樹梢的高度，樹影婆娑搖曳偶爾映入，仿如枝葉延伸至室內空間，這樣的環境氛圍讓我們連結躺臥在地，望著微微穿透樹梢的光的場景，故事就停留在凝固這平靜的沉浸。

Nestled between Guangfu South Road and Zhongxiao East Road, the site was once an abandoned railway, later repurposed into a surface parking lot. As the city evolved, the parking moved underground, giving way to a lush, tree-lined pedestrian path—a quiet green corridor in the heart of the city.

Located on the second floor of a building adjacent to this greenbelt, the clinic opens onto the treetops through a horizontal band of windows that run along the waiting area. At this precise height, it feels as though you could reach out and brush the foliage with your fingertips. The silhouettes of swaying branches occasionally cast fleeting shadows into the space, making it seem as if the trees have extended their presence indoors. It’s a setting that evokes the image of lying beneath a canopy of leaves, gazing up as sunlight softly filters through—a tranquil pause, gently suspended in time.

案場樑下淨高僅二米一五，樑下既有懸吊眾多凌亂的管線在視覺上組織成另一道的壓抑，消除這樣低矮扁平的不安是一段經由化簡為繁的操作去取得化繁為簡成果的過程，當高度拉撐至建築框架的極限，隙縫透出光線暗示延伸的可能，不僅呼應設計概念的想像也重塑人與空間的關係，曾經的壓抑轉變為引人的元素。

The challenge of the space lay in its proportions: the underside of the structural beams offered a modest clearance of just 215 centimeters. In addition to this low ceiling, the visual clutter of exposed, disorganized utility lines contributed to a sense of compression and discomfort. Our design response was not to hide these constraints, but to transform them.

Through a process of “complexifying to simplify,” we reshaped the ceiling into a series of irregular geometries. This abstract form allowed indirect lighting to softly diffuse from within—much like sunlight seeping through a forest canopy. The ceiling reaches up to the very limits of the building’s structural frame, and from the crevices, light escapes, suggesting spatial depth beyond the visible. What was once oppressive becomes immersive, a design that reshapes not just the architecture, but also the human experience within it.
