What was SUNCAA's role in BH7?

SUNCAA served as the integrated design-and-build team, coordinating architecture, interiors, landscape, furniture design and construction.

Which low-carbon outcomes have been verified?

Certification documents report 44% total carbon reduction, 57% material circularity and an Emerald rating.

What building scope is covered by the certification?

The certification lists 2,766.94 m² of floor area and two stories above ground. Certificate TCRACS114004 was issued on January 21, 2026.

What role did architect Marshall Yang hold?

Public reporting identifies Marshall Yang as an architect on the low-carbon design team; formal architectural certification remains subject to the project documents.

Why are completed photographs, competition boards and certification records shown separately?

Completed photographs show the built result, competition boards explain the design strategy, and certification records verify quantified outcomes.

LOW-CARBON CASE STUDY

Farglory Leyuan BH7, a low-carbon and sustainable reception center.

Name: Farglory Leyuan BH7 | Full Project Film
Uploaded: 2026-07-29
Duration: 2 min 59 s
Description: The film moves from aerial site views to the exterior, interior, landscape and passive-design strategies, showing how low-carbon and circular principles were delivered in the completed project.

Located in Beitun, Taichung, on a site of approximately 1,000 ping. SUNCAA led the integrated delivery of architectural, interior, landscape and furniture design, together with construction execution.

01METHOD & DECISIONS

Low-carbon design through integrated project delivery

One project structure coordinated architecture, interiors, landscape, furniture and construction while bringing carbon objectives into modeling, material, assembly and construction decisions.

Integrated design-and-build delivery

SUNCAA coordinated architecture, interiors, landscape, furniture design and construction across the design and site interfaces.

BIM and carbon simulation

Models and data were used to compare design, structural and material options and establish a reviewable carbon-reduction baseline.

Circular materials and modular strategy

Material reuse, modular construction, disassembly and future reconfiguration were included in the design approach.

Landscape, energy and water

Shading, ventilation, planting, equipment efficiency and rainwater use were integrated to reduce operational demand.
