First look at Taichung Art Museum by SANAASANAA unveils Taichung Art Museum, part of the newly completed Taichung Green Museumbrary, set to open on December 13th, 2025.
Located in Taiwan’s second-largest city, the project integrates the city’s central library with a metropolitan art museum, establishing a combined cultural facility that presents a new institutional model.
The Taichung Green Museumbrary sits on the northern edge of Central Park, a 67-hectare green space within the 254-hectare Shuinan Trade and Economic Park, formerly a military airport decommissioned in 2004.
On the rooftop, the design team at SANAA organizes an outdoor garden that offers views of Central Park and the Taichung skyline.
The dual-layer facade combines high-performance glass or metal cladding with an outer layer of aluminum expanded metal mesh.
