5.1 Urban Design, Transportation and Affordability Report
Synopsis
Local Context: Taipei City
Taiwan is a country spanning only 36,193 km2 but with a population of 23.34 million (compare with France’s 674,834 km2 and 65.7 million people).
The population density is especially high because two-thirds of the island is composed of mountains, and as a result most people live along the coastal areas. It is especially crowded in urban areas, such as the capitol city, Taipei, which is one of the top ten densest cities in the world. In addition to the high population density, Taipei also developed rapidly over the years, both of which contribute to a random assortment of architecture in the city that expands horizontally instead of vertically to conserve space.
However, also as a result of the rapid development, many of the residential buildings were not built to last and have infrastructure that is now rundown or outdated. In recent years, new residential buildings are sky scraper apartments, which are usually only affordable by the wealthy upper class because of the luxury design and locations in the city center.
Taipei City Skyline - Urban Context
Taipei Rooftop
This population growth results in the lack of living space and sufficient public amenity, and cause middle classes moving toward the periphery, even outside of city. The majority of these people are young professionals who just graduated from collage whom have worked a few years, and they are not able to afford a house yet. However, most of them works in the city center and commute, and caused major traffic congestions with millions of cars and motorcycle. Consequently, the city is left with a high carbon dioxide pollution, and the decrease living quality.
Taipei Urban Crisis
Population Density In Taiwan
Taipei city population reached its 20-year peak and residential building has been constructed in various types. The majorities are a duplex apartment, which is relatively wide and 4 to 5 story building, and a row house that is extremely narrow and deep single family owned. These two types were constructed during the modern democracy period. Most of flat-roof duplex apartment and row house are facing problems:
leakage, heat absorption and no public facilities.
Therefore, the illegal make-shift metal roofed shelters have been introduced widely in most of the residential buildings and create unregulated cityscape of Taipei.
For Orchid House urban design strategy, NCTU UNICODE focus districts where the most of duplex apartment and row house are located as the most needed area for urban regeneration to vitalize not only the residential building, but also these districts.
Taipei Urban Acupuncture
Ximending District
As main focal point of Ximending Zero Energy District plan, NCTU UNICODE proposes not only PV panel implementation to buildings, but also larger scale of renewable energy sources such as CSP (Concentrated Solar Power), Biomass, Wind power and Geothermal. In order for all renewable energy sources to be distributed efficiently, advanced applications of Wide-area-Measurement System (WAMS) is installed one of larger footprint building rooftops, and Data Centre (MDMS) serve all the energy with automation system. Furthermore, AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) is installed to Orchid House Clusters to manage power supply within houses. Please refer Architecture Design Narrative for farther details of AMI integration to housing appliances.

Orchid House extension on existing building in Taipei city plays not only critical role for Ximending zero energy district urban planning, but also to apply new concept of urban regeneration. Almost 50% of residential building in Taipei city are over 30 years old and typically demolished during the renewal planning. However, NCTU UNICODE points out the problem of city re-development organized by government and executed by private developers. The developer tends to acquire larger number of properties to combine the land FAR (Floor Area Ratio) to build up high-rise residential condominium, which is not affordable for average income level and treated as investment target by investors.
Orchid House will proved unique opportunity for not only the building owner, but also the targeted tenants, who needs housing support to pursue their young profession to promote new creative industry in Taipei.

Orchid House Urban Concept
The Orchid House is as much a physical dwelling structure as a mindset for living. NCTU UNICODE hopes to use the Orchid House to revive Taiwan by focusing on urban centres. Urban areas in Taiwan, particularly the capitol city, Taipei, have high population densities and a random assortment of architecture – many buildings are old with rundown facilities. Furthermore, as in all urban cities but even more so because of the particularly high population density, commuter traffic causes extreme congestion, uses a lot of energy, and creates large amounts of pollution. Reviving the city would include not only renovating buildings and improving the residents’ quality of life, but also promoting creativity and sustainability.

Taipei City General Condition
Settled in Qing Dynasty in 1709, Taipei city started as a trade port and economic centre (the Old Taipei) in Northern Taiwan and stretch outward till what it looks like today as a metropolitan. Area of the City proper is 271.7 sq. km., in which 47.8% is urban areas and 52.2% is non-urban areas. Taipei’s rich, drastic natural environment is full of wind, water, mountains, and forests.
Population of Taipei city is 2.68 million with average density of 9,890 populations per sq. km. In urban area, it is 18,000 populations per sq. km. Population would reach 7.01 million when counting the whole metropolitan area including New Taipei City and Keelung. Due to differences in geographic location, economic development of its districts, Taipei’s population is not evenly distributed. In 2010, the aging index of Taipei has reached 94.1%.
5.1.1 Urban Design Strategies
Four main themes of urban development, based on the 2010-11 Annual Report, Dept. of Urban Development, Taipei City Government:
Achieving Sustainable Urban Development: eco-friendly development, low-carbon, energy-saving policies, and encouraging green industry.
Building a Beautiful Waterfront City: increase water-accessibility by newly developed facilities and parks along the riverbanks and water edges.
Urban Renewal to Attract Industry: designating renewal zones, shifting capacity, and reviewing zoning ordinances to attract vendors and industries. As well as establishing Urban Regeneration Stations (URS), which turn idle spaces into vessels for people to create, to learn and to share with others.
Innovative and Efficient Execution: conduct urban development innovatively and efficiently, instead of relying on policy arguing and facing complains from citizens.

Population Growth
Population Shift Mapping of Taipei City Commutable area by Public Transportation Network of commuting
When examining the statistics for different cities, the study was conducted by the Ministry of Transportation and Communications have found that a car commuter in Taipei City spends an average of NT$13,777 per month, and it can be reduced to NT$1,973 per month if taking public transport. Despite the potential savings, the study found that more than 60 percent of commuters in Taipei would not consider switching from motor vehicles to public transport systems, because many counties and cities have yet to develop a mature public transport network system.
Uncontrollable Traffic condition
Based on the research by Environmental Protection Administration (EPA), Taiwan is ranked 17th the world and ninth in Asia in terms of its carbon footprint. Each person in Taiwan, on average, produce 10.89 tons of carbon emissions a year, which is more than its Japan and South Korea, and daily per capita carbon footprint of 19.6 kg, almost four times the UN recommendation in 2011.
Even though the highest carbon footprint sector is industrial, Taiwanese transport sector contributes its carbon emission by 14% of all.
Among this transport sector, the road vehicles including motorcycles, passenger cars and trucks account for approximately 94% of all transport- related carbon dioxide emissions. Vehicle ownership in Taipei shows extremely high growth rate from 1980 to 2000 by 430% for cars and 173% for motorcycles due to the relatively poor level of service of the bus system. These high number of vehicle bring environmental pollution as well as traffic congestion. The average speed of private cars in Taipei city is about 20 kilo meters per hour in peak periods while that of buses is about 10 kilo meter per hour. Taipei city needs new transportation system, which contribute less carbon emission and street congestion.

Energy Crisis
Taiwan’s energy supply is monopoly relying on Taiwan Power system, which is 41,400 MW installed capacity in year 2011. However, the limited natural resources for energy generation, Taiwan relies on 99% of imported resources. Also Taiwan Power has developed isolated system which not yet been connected to other power systems. Recently Taiwan Power has been falling to reflect the costs under government’s energy policy.

Overview of Taipower’s System

The main reason why the energy cost is increasing is that nuclear plants in Taiwan are now facing serious reconsideration by government and citizens. Anti-nuclear protesters has started demonstration after nuclear disaster in Fukushima Japan in March 2011 and currently over 68,000 people across major cities against the island’s fourth nuclear power plant construction. Since fossil fuels play a major role in the energy supply structure, the energy production costs are depending on too much price difference of the fuels. Taipower has been revising their energy policy to steadily reducing nuclear dependency, replacing nuclear with LNG for base load and promoting renewable energy.

Facing Natural DisastersIn September 16, 2001 Typhoon Nari struck Taiwan and took 91 lives. The typhoon rains overwhelmed existing flood protection capacity some area where there is no regulatory reservoirs, and resulted in major flooding. Taipei city is currently under fear of not only flooding, but also mud slides triggered by over perception onto the mountain along the basin.

4 CONCLUSIONS
Five social vulnerability factors have been taken into account, together with flood hazard information, for evaluating the flood risk in the CTA. By considering the temporal variation of demographical data, the study further demonstrated that change of social vulnerability factors and the risk. The analyzing results can help the city government to realize the most vulnerable area within the CTA. Hence, required resource can be al- located to reduce the community’s vulnerability to flooding.
In Taiwan, the governments warning mainly rely on the flood potential information to issue early warning during flooding. The study has shown that an area with low flood depth may still face high risk because it has higher social vulnerability factors. Without considering the social factors, such areas may not be highlighted and receive required help in advance or in time.
In the future, the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) will be used to calculate the weights of different fac- tors for reflecting the influence level of different factors in different areas. Furthermore, more social factors,

Vacancy and Equilibrium of Density
Economic change and differences in district development cause impact to population unevenly distributed in the city and some part of the city would vacant, even abandoned. In last decade, Taipei City had established art villages and URS to reactivate certain vintage communities and streets, which had successfully brought back economic to the areas. But for some part of the city the problem remain.
For example in Ximending, upper floors of many buildings are still abandoned while business and activities only happen on street level.
If URS, an urban acupuncture strategy, can bring new life and energy back to old community, a new way of intervention such as Orchid House (or part of it, to be embedded into existing buildings) can be a bold opportunity to the old district.
Turn urban crisis to opportunities
Even though Taipei City is facing a lot of urban crisis, there are still chances to implement and improve for sustainable city development. NCTU UNICODE pays special attention to Taiwanese industrial capacity in high-technologies, unregulated rooftop for new developable urban space and young talented people who can guide Taiwanese industries for next years to come. The cloud diagram shows how each topics in crisis and opportunities are related and can developed in relation. In our urban design strategies, abandoned rooftop space and renewable energy technologies especially play important role.
In following sections, we explain step by step how to apply our urban design strategies to selected locations of Taipei City as well as technologies we try to implement.

Taipei Residential building Type Rooftop as New Urban Space
For most of the Taiwanese building, especially in the city, rooftop is usually a forgotten space with minimal activities, if not none, which seem to be irrelevant to our daily life. Some rooftops become the backstage for “unappealing” facilities, such as AC/Ventilation outdoor units, water tanks, pipes and cables, while some become the expansion of our living space. Because of the demands of gaining more living space, most of the rooftops in Taipei were renovated by owner illegally for private or rental purposes. It’s an inevitable struggle between the average citizen, developers, and government, because most of the Asian cities were developed bottom-up by the people, while modern Western cities were mostly designed top-down by the authority.
If we treat rooftop as the new ground for urban space rather than a disease to remove, it could be a new hope to many urban issues.
Taipei Residential Building Typologies
Taipei city population reached its 20-year peak and residential building has been constructed in various types. The majorities are a duplex apartment, which is relatively wide and 4 to 5 story building, and a row house that is extremely narrow and deep single family owned. These two types were constructed during the modern democracy period. Most of flat-roof duplex apartment and row house are facing problems:
leakage, heat absorption and no public facilities.
Therefore, the illegal make-shift metal roofed shelters have been introduced widely in most of the residential buildings and create unregulated cityscape of Taipei.
For Orchid House urban design strategy, NCTU UNICODE focus districts where the most of duplex apartment and row house are located as the most needed area for urban regeneration to vitalize not only the residential building, but also these districts.
