Taiwan's indigenous cultures are rich and diverse. To understand indigenous peoples, one must begin with their culture, lifestyle, and housing. This study focuses on the residential lives of the Atayal people in Heping District, Taichung City, aiming to explore indigenous architectural culture, investigate the construction of Atayal dwellings, and thereby gain a deeper understanding of Atayal indigenous culture. Through literature review, fieldwork, and in-depth interviews, this research seeks to present the correlation between Atayal architecture and its cultural transformations. After carefully examining previous research and conducting field investigations, it was found that there are four groups of Atayal dwellings in Heping District. Although originating from different river basins, these dwellings exhibit similar spatial layouts and construction concepts. Furthermore, the construction materials of these dwellings vary, primarily due to the availability of local resources. In the Dajia River basin, wood is the primary material, while bamboo is predominantly used in the Dahan River basin. Both basins demonstrate the use of wood, bamboo, thatch, and stone for roofs and walls, as well as the construction of houses with stone-built low walls. Additionally, the interior space design of Atayal dwellings exhibits a high degree of correlation with the trends of modern architectural aesthetics, driven by factors such as changes in construction techniques. Moreover, cultural transmission has undergone diverse transformations due to modernization. |
