台灣城市的巷弄，充斥著盤根錯節的日常軌跡，鐵窗花、鐵皮屋、頂樓加蓋、棄置管線等形構的不同線條、材質、形狀、陳舊感...那是一種無意識的共創，乘載的是生活環境的共同印象。玩味旅舍座落在城市西區的老巷弄裡，上述的物質風景，在晨曦、晚霞的光影變化裡，四十年間，無心點綴著旅舍後陽台。

 

The lanes and alleys in the cities of Taiwan are full of tracks and traces of daily life. Iron window grill, metal roof, rooftop add-ons, and the abandoned pipelines and lead-outs, materialize the senses of the space with physical lines, materials, and shapes. As a form of unconscious co-work, these objects create a shared impression of our living environment. Play Design Hotel is located in the old street lane of Taiyuan Road in the Western Taipei. The objects mentioned above, together with the lights and shadows in the dawn and sunset, unintentionally decorate our back balcony in the past 40 years.

 

今年我們邀請設計師劉軒慈，為旅舍後陽台設計物件，包含兩樘舊鐵窗回收改造的植栽門、以及兩張吸菸小桌。

小桌為可分離式設計，掛靠在女兒牆洗石子上，讓抽菸的客人，可以在充滿植栽的後陽台，倚著小桌，伴隨一罐台啤，

在吞雲吐霧的同時，環賞這片巷弄風景。

 

This year, we invited designer Atelier Hsuantzu Liu to create design objects for the antique balcony. The design objects include two plant-stands remodeled from the recycled iron windows, and two hanging tables for smoking. The tables are made from steel and designed as moveable; they are hung on the old pebble wash finis wall, for the smokers to hold drinks or lighter, enjoy both cigarette and the unique views of small alleys.
