高雄是少數以工業起家的城市，基地地點位於鼓山區，以前以四大工業為主：水泥，磚窯，合板，鋼鐵。這次的設計以水泥跟磚為主要發展，希望讓世人可以更能了解當時工業的輝煌文明。希望重新喚起當地水泥與紅磚產業的歷史記憶，在舊有歷史建築旁的閒置空地上建造專門圖書館與產業紀念館，提供過去的歷史痕跡與未來工業的展望。

我們將產業紀念館設立在先前保留的鐵皮倉庫旁，展示水泥與磚窯廠的歷史歷程、專業技術與工法，讓所有人可以參觀學習，深入了解當時的工業知識與現代工業運作的方式，並設立一專門圖書館，來提供建築和工業類專業書籍與知識，強化其專業性，擴充國人求知的深度與廣度。兩棟建築之間連接了戶外平台，用作休憩的同時也提供了良好的視野俯瞰基地景觀。

我們希望這座建築作品可以成為人們探索水泥和磚窯等相關工業知識的首選目標，激發對當地工業歷史的興趣，促進對當代工業的了解與關注。

Kaohsiung is one of the few cities that started with industry. The base is located in Gushan District. It used to be dominated by four major industries: cement, brick kilns, plywood, and steel. This time the design is mainly developed with cement and bricks, hoping to allow the world to better understand the glorious industrial civilization of that time. It is hoped to rekindle the historical memory of the local cement and red brick industry, and build a special library and industrial memorial hall on the vacant land next to the old historical buildings to provide historical traces of the past and prospects for future industry.

We set up the Industrial Memorial Hall next to the previously preserved iron warehouse to display the history, professional techniques and construction methods of the cement and brick kilns, so that everyone can visit and learn, and gain a deeper understanding of the industrial knowledge at that time and the way modern industry operates. We also established a Special libraries are provided to provide professional books and knowledge on architecture and industry, strengthen their professionalism, and expand the depth and breadth of Chinese people’s pursuit of knowledge. An outdoor platform is connected between the two buildings, which is used for rest and provides a good view of the site.

We hope that this architectural work can become the first choice for people to explore related industrial knowledge such as cement and brick kilns, stimulate interest in local industrial history, and promote understanding and attention to contemporary industry.
