The architectural inspiration comes from the Pac-Man ghost designed by NAMCO, a game that took the world by storm in the 1980s and is considered one of the iconic works in the realm of video games, even becoming a symbol of pop culture.
NAMCO adopted this image as its mascot and company logo. Drawing from this imagery, the CXN designer aims for the building to help residents continuously capture endless wealth and business opportunities. The design connects from the outside in, like a specially crafted coin-shaped metalwork, allowing wealth to flow in but not out, symbolizing great prosperity. By adjusting the proportions of the exterior walls, it increases the amount of sunlight and enhances the sunrise shadows of the coin design.
Set in a simple and honest environment, the design integrates modern elements with cultural beliefs and obsessions, whether superstitions or convictions. Through meticulous design and execution, the project sold out immediately upon launch. Its unique prefabrication, waterproofing techniques, and elegant white stone paint further highlight the distinctive features of the building.
