瓦屋續篇:客家生活街道的空間重構

本設計以新瓦屋客家聚落為基地，探討在高樓林立的都市環境中，傳統聚落如何重新被理解與使用。現況中，新瓦屋被周圍現代建築包圍，逐漸成為居民穿越城市的捷徑通道，空間多以快速通行為主，缺乏停留與交流，使原有的生活脈絡逐漸淡化。因此本計畫以「重回生活捷徑」為核心，重新詮釋通行動線的空間意義，將原本單一的通道轉化為承載日常活動的生活街道。

設計導入早餐店、雜貨店、陶甕店與擂茶店等機能，串聯形成一條具有時間性與生活節奏的街道，讓人們在移動的過程中自然參與客家日常。透過棚架、榕樹節點與半戶外空間，創造可停留與互動的場所；並運用土磚、瓦片與藍染等材料語言，轉化客家文化的空間樣貌，使聚落從被動保存轉為主動生成生活。最終，新瓦屋不再只是城市中的過渡空間，而是重新回歸生活的文化場域。

Beyond the Tile House: Reconstructing a Hakka Living Street

This project reinterprets the Hakka settlement of Xinwawu in Hsinchu within a rapidly urbanized context, where it has become a shortcut lacking everyday life. By proposing “reclaiming the everyday shortcut,” the design transforms a path of movement into a street of activities.

Programs such as a breakfast shop, grocery store, pottery shop, and lei-cha house are arranged to reflect daily rhythms, while arcades, pavilions, and semi-outdoor spaces encourage interaction. Traditional materials reinterpret Hakka identity within a contemporary setting.

The project shifts Xinwawu from a passive heritage site into an active living environment where culture is experienced through everyday life.
