(中文在下面, switching it up, partly cos my translation is bad lol) Last year I visited this beautiful 1930's mansion in central Taiwan. I love the blend of eastern and western design and the simple modernism. I was surprised to see almost all the original windows and beds were there. I had begun to see posts suggesting the mansion may be demolished so decided to get down there quickly. I will likely turn it into a drawing along with two other large 1930's buildings nearby. It'd be hard to do that without a visit! At the moment it seems it's a provisional monument. However with what happened to Tianwaitian Theater that is no guarantee of protection. I'm a little torn over whether to give location. On the one hand I want people to know about this place and see why it should be protected, and perhaps write about it to the Taichung gov. On the other hand a huge influx of people could cause a number of problems. I think I will leave the location off until I know the cultural bureaus' decision. For now enjoy the pictures!
(對不起翻譯有錯, 我很快寫過了) 去年我在台灣中部這座漂亮的房子去看看. 差不多1935年蓋了. 我在臉書看到這個房子也許會破壞, 所以我快快去. 在未來我想畫這個房子跟其他很近老建築. 我很驚訝地看到原來的窗戶和床. 以前我告訴大家這是在哪裡, 我要等待文化局的決定, 對不起 (there are pros and cons to giving location but for now I think it's not responsible). 覺得也許好多人去, 就有問題. (一個外國人可以自己找到, 覺得台灣人也可能哈哈). 希望不會天外天劇場一樣. 現在請.
