“Ocean Grand Residence” is a contemporary architecture at 5,067 sqm and 15 stories high. The high position of the building area allows residence to have the ocean view from inside the house. The ground floor of the building is open for an art museum, while the apartments are situated on the upper floors. The wavy exterior facade of this building offers a greater view and decreases the oppressed feeling between each floor. This project has been considered as one of the most contemporary architecture in Taiwan, which won the Gold Prize for the residential architecture of Taiwan Architecture Award.
