Taiwan has emerged as a cultural crossroads. Mixing Chinese and Japanese traditions with Western values and diverse beliefs, the sovereign state holds strong ties to mainland China. Experiencing social movements and political reforms across all its governances, Taiwan has transformed into a multi-party democracy with an advanced industrial economy. Large socio-economic shifts within the last three decades have furthered the territory\u2019s ambiguous international political status, as well as engendered a complex definition of Taiwanese national identity.<\/p>\n

As one of the most densely populated locations in the world, Taiwan has many cities that showcase its varied styles and influences. Embracing a hybrid blend of eclectic architecture, the built environment reflects both localized and international building trends. Taking a closer look at Taiwan\u2019s new cultural projects, the following collection examines projects that build upon Taiwan\u2019s past to reimagine its future. Together, they begin to reveal a tumultuous history and the forces that are actively shaping contemporary life in Taiwan:<\/p>\n
