All travelers and cameramen are constantly looking for their unique experience. It is a unique shot of that unique place that is gaining respect and awe from friends and magazine editors. In the constantly expanding tourism industry, these places are becoming hard to find everyday, especially if you are not a local friend. When you travel to a place you are not accustomed to, you will be taken to a typical sightseeing spot, and it will cost you the perfect fee. Remember to leave the trails and put their hands on those untouched jewels, research and effort are necessary. In most cases, due to these two requirements, these places are initially very beautiful. Please make it much more useful for those actually getting there.
Taiwan itself is an undiscovered gemstone in East Asia, full of unknown territory, making it a brilliant place for those seeking unique experiences. This weekend, I rediscovered one of these destinations. In this place, I labeled "Formosa's Footoo Village". The following is a colorful story. I hope you enjoy it.
History
Architecture
The 1970s was an interesting time around the world. The perspective of new fashion trends, music style, lifestyle was different from the past. People now had ideas, they also had the money to buy them. Moreover, in the architectural design industry, we are trying to satisfy the craving that matches the unique unique view of life in search of a unique home. In the days when robots and machines eventually were believed to solve the humanities problem, Finnish architect Matti Suuronen said "Futuro '
This new home, after all, is the world standard for all homes and is designed to allow travel and life around the world. This 16-piece pod made with reinforced fiberglass, or flight tray & # 39; is designed to be sustainable in any environment. The basic idea was rebuilt when I moved to the Swiss Alps by changing the pace to live in a ski village, buying a house when living on a beach in Hawaii. What was needed was four concrete bills as a base, the house could be placed on it, and it could be placed almost anywhere.
In addition to a unique, portable design house, the interior is designed with the ultimate convenience in mind. In the living room there was a series of repetitive chairs that allowed people to sit comfortably and not to fall asleep for the guests. These chairs were along the outer wall facing the center of the house with kitchen and bar area. It was built for a wonderful conversational dining and living room area in one compact space. Along the back of the house, the master bedroom and the bus were intimidated with privacy. It is attractive to this interesting environment that the electric heating system was used in only 30 minutes from 20 degrees Fahrenheit to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Incredibly sustainable
Sadly, less than 100 houses built around the world are generally caused by dramatic price increases in Exxon Mobile Crisis and petroleum. The domino effect of this increase has made these household plastics more expensive and naturally began to lose people's interest. Matti Suuronen dreamed of a future world where plane planes flew around the airplane and flew around the sky with a helicopter and was picked up in his design in the 1980s.
A venture company
But before Futuro 's fate began, one talented businessman in Taiwan shared Matti Suuronen' s dream and responded to it.
Mr. Sui was a Taiwanese businessman and had a military past in his early days. One of his first ventures was a popular brand of salsa paralya soda which is currently sold through Taiwan. At the beginning, it was not very popular with local taste buds, and started a slow start. However, as the establishment of an American military base in Taiwan became the base of East Asia, the Western taste of both culture and food began to develop in the country. Along with that, Suu Ming 's sale of carbonated drink exploded, a new factory was established, and became a new member of a high class society.
With his new money, Mr. Sui decided to aim for a large market of Taiwanese citizen shopping vacation home with investment concern. He decided that the water sports and beach life was the necessary look to create a beachside community for luxury Taiwan. With this in mind, we chose a beautiful beachfront along the coast of northeastern part of Taiwan, invested in real estate, and began building a fuller residential area such as Footou's design house and square type beach villa. His market was a Taiwanese super wealthy. These beach villas initially represent $ 94,000.
Being informed by the local real estate management company, I was told that historically the investor lost interest and the project was running out of funds. He explained that many of the investors can go to other exotic places and private villas abroad and hardly want a simple vacation on the lawn beach property of the house.
Also, in an interview with the local dance instructor in the neighboring spa and hotel, the weather condition of this area was announced every day of the year. It is rarely hot in the summer, brought strong winds that are unbearable in winter, hit the cold ocean on the beach. She explained that it is smaller than the ideal placement of the vacation home and that its neighborhood was vacant for 20-30 + years.
Today 's result is a once - successful businessman' s dream, giving a small window to what it was, once a futuristic beachside villa 's neighbors' ruins, devastated and unstable.
Shooting experience
Transport (travel)
When I tried to catch the magical time in the morning, I got on the first bus to the beach resort abandoned now around 5 am. This was possible only because Taipei's transportation system is elastic and it makes life easier to avoid the danger of driving a scooter with busy transportation. While watching the scenery from the high-rise apartment to the jungle being covered with green hills and temples, I turned around the mountains and began understanding how easy it was from Taiwan's turmoil. In just one hour, I already had a coastline. With the DSLR and the tripod, I got off the coach and found the first Futuro.
Feeling
It was cloudy in the morning. It is located along the coast of Taiwan, bringing a whole new feeling to the scenario. Approaching the gray clouds, the scattered sunshine, and Futuro's house, I felt literally to be kidnapped. Creepy weather and abandoned structures worked really well together, giving me a sense of entering, shooting and raising the hair to escape.
While the scheduled community was walking around the street, color contrast and random objects of ruins presented amazing windows in the past. All Futuro style houses are dull orange or faded yellow with fading, indicating age and rough past life. The rusty dirt running in the side of each family was like a scarred bleeding caused by the harsh environment for many years. The wind canopy steel pole at the front porch of each square house was rocked by a strong wind as if the child was bent pipe cleaner.
Growing, most of the house apparently was devastated for a long time. But surprisingly, the door has a rusty padlock, there is a television inside, and there are still some things that seem to be possessed yet. This inspected the feeling I had in some abandoned town horror movies and constantly checked the shadows so that there would not be anything creeping behind me to put an ax behind.
I challenged some of the houses that were not barricaded with wooden sticks and barbed wire locks for a better look. I found a toothbrush beside a bottle of head and shoulder shampoo in a Japanese tatami room, still twin beds with sheets on them, and even one bathroom.
The kitchen with the stove, the refrigerator and the air-conditioning unit was still hanging on the wall, but at that time I was amazed at the modernity the entire project was aiming for. It was attractive that there was a table and a seat where barbecue pits and gardens line up under the Futuro designed house in front of the villa in front of the beach front square. It was similar to what I was thinking as a campground. It was a place where families gathered and cooked outside to enjoy nature and family. Interesting contrast of mood and mood for such a place.
Overall, that energy was a strange capricious mix, contrary to the feeling that it was a very pleasant community where it actually lives when it succeeds. Villa's interior design and the strangeness of the community were the best places for a camping vacation that is a short drive from the capital.
Lessons & Enlightenment
Founded by Mr. Sui, the beachside villa provides a unique and interesting perspective on the Taiwanese past and the general trends in the world. This place is an opportunity for tourists and photographers who come to Taiwan to miss, for those looking for a kind of sight. Fortunately, unlike Sandy's unfortunate west coast brothers podhouse, we were able to avoid bulldozers but I do not know when that day will end.
It is just a short time from Taipei, but it also reminds us how incredibly wonderful it is to travel in Taiwan. The landscape and culture of Taiwan, one of the undiscovered treasures of the East, is rich and unique, but the country's modernity makes it all accessible to it. Taiwan's Footou Village, which has not been discovered, is a wonderful traveling experience. I leave the beat way and highly recommend it as a day trip for those interested in places that are unique and rich in talking. package.
