Cityframes GRAND Tainan, Taiwan transforms the architecture, streetscapes, and road textures of downtown Tainan into a large-scale 3D printed city model. Using the urban structure around Tainan Station and the old city as a starting point, the 129 × 79 cm wide format clearly unfolds the street layout, building density, and low-rise city outline. It can be wall-mounted in living rooms, studies, offices, and reception areas, or laid flat on a display platform, becoming a Tainan cityscape that can be viewed for extended periods.
The Tainan GRAND version presents the city center's skyline, starting from Tainan Station, a crucial transportation hub, and connecting surrounding neighborhoods and urban cultural spaces such as the Tainan Art Museum. Unlike densely packed metropolitan models, Tainan's distinctiveness lies in its street scale, low-rise buildings, and the urban texture accumulated over time. Through Cityframes' CitySculpt process, combining satellite 3D data, spatial data, and manual refinement, the scaled-down city retains a clear and easily readable structure.
Tainan GRAND is crafted from a biodegradable material based on corn kernels. Its soft, misty white surface possesses a delicate, plaster-like texture, allowing rooftops, roads, and building silhouettes to naturally emerge through the interplay of light and shadow. The pieces can be wall-mounted horizontally or vertically, or displayed flat. Each piece is made to order and is engraved with a unique number, the month of production, and a signature. It's not merely a miniature model of Tainan City; it preserves memories of living there, travel experiences, and an understanding of the city within everyday spaces.
