King Boat is a cultural museum dedicated to the King Boat Ceremony, located in Donggang, Taiwan. The five-story building has a white facade set above a wave-like base that recalls the sea. The facade is clad in glass fiber reinforced concrete, chosen for its texture and its resistance to salt and humidity. Folded lines and recessed entries lead to a central atrium lined with expanded aluminum mesh, which filters light and sound. A full-size King Boat replica is displayed under natural light, and a rooftop deck offers views of the harbor.
