Abstract
Taiwan is an island situated in East Asia of the Western Pacific Ocean, and our culture was rooted in the East and expanded with the inclusion of Western influences. Throughout the process of colonization, the external cultural influence had made powerful impacts on Taiwanese culture. It is also the processes of assimilation during our history that merged these divergent cultures in terms of coherence, hybridity, identity and allegiance. As Taiwan’s contemporary society has been facing the development of cultural transition, Taiwan showcased its soft power to the international community in its creation of a sustainable cultural creative industry, especially focusing on a variety of green fashion and architecture design featuring Taiwan’s unique cultural identities. This is often reflected in the themes for design courses. Therefore, the main purpose of this research is to address contemporary process of green design and cultural cluster in Taiwan by way of applications. The reason why we take Taiwan’s green design aspects as the main analytic subject is because of its uniqueness and necessity that represents one of the interpretations of the process of post-modern approaches. We would argue that this present study, which draws on phenomenographic research methodology and post-modern theories to investigate the subject, will help us maintain a positive approach in hope to develop a broader perspective and to establish the “green cluster” in connection with Eco-Design society. Moreover, the sustainable consciousness is becoming increasingly important, and gradually had become a trend in the postmodern era in Taiwan. This study realizes the key factor of solving environmental problems relies on human's awareness on the importance of cherishing tellurian resources. By researching and categorizing the forms of the cultural and creative transition. Our research will take several “green cluster” examples in Taiwan as the core cases to investigate and analyze the unique landscape, such as 2010 Taipei International Flora Exposition and Taichung CMP Elite Bookstore. We would stress in this paper of the green design concept, cultural cluster, cultural creative and our understanding of Taiwanese history to show the inspiration of green design aspects. Furthermore, the study will be using case study and Phenomenography as the main methodologies; we hope to explore the development of our relationship with nature and implement creative ideas to our lives. Finally, we plan to develop the concept of “green cluster” and give adaptive guidance to the design field. We will also make efforts to put relevant theories such as these into practice to improve Eco-Design concept in Taiwan. It is very true that we should also have a deeper understanding of green topics, including the origin and prevalence of green concept. Hopefully, the cultivation of a new Taiwanese green design trend will attain ethnic harmony locally and globally, and then amalgamating them into a new and unique form.
