Nanhua Glimmer is a public landscape park in Pingtung, Taiwan. A decommissioned school campus was transformed into an open park for the community and for elderly visitors. The former campus wall was removed, so the new planting and lighting connect with the surrounding streets. Curved concrete retaining walls, finished in terrazzo, echo the patterns of the pineapple fields and the folds of the mountain ridges. A mist facility with fine nozzles waters the plants and recreates the mountain mist. Embedded light strips spread even light at night.
