这座小巧灵活的建筑由800席球剧场，1500席大剧院和800席蓝盒子组成，三个剧场嵌入中央立方体。立方体容纳舞台﹑后台和技术支援空间，并让大剧院和蓝盒子得以组合起来成为超级大剧场。这个巨大的空间有着工业建筑的特性，可以容纳意想不到的表演。球剧场有一个独特的镜框开口，让创作人实验舞台景观的不同可能性。立面不透光的剧场仿如神秘的量体，靠于丰富多变而明亮，有着波浪玻璃立面的立方体。

中央立方体从地面升高，形成地面景观广场。从这里，公共回路贯穿通常被隐藏的剧场基础设施和制作空间，沿途设有剧场风景窗，让参观者看到三个剧场内部。

OMA 始创合伙人雷姆．库哈斯﹕「我们为比赛第一次去台北的时候，感受到这是一个包容各种实验的城市。这座建筑回应了那个发现。我们将三个传统的剧场以独特方式整合，从而为剧场创作人开创崭新机会去孕育场景和演出。我们很荣幸作为成就台北表演艺术中心的一份子，城市﹑合作伙伴和建筑师的知识﹑创意和智慧，都是不可或缺的元素，让这个项目成真。」

OMA管理合伙人 – 建筑师大卫．希艾莱特：「看到文化创作人﹑观众和大众以我们构想中的，又或是以出人意表的方式使用北艺，实是难能可贵。在这座公共建筑和周边，剧场文化与鲜活的夜市文化交织在一起。对我们来说，这种文化交融正好体现了台北的能量，这座城市一直都是开放又勇于改变的。」

Taipei Performing Arts Center designed by OMA has opened to the public. The project jointly led by Rem Koolhaas and David Gianotten is located at Taipei’s vibrant Shilin Night Market. It is a place for the cultural creatives and the public to explore new possibilities in performing arts and experience different aspects of the theater.

The compact and flexible building is composed of a spherical 800-seat Globe Playhouse, a 1,500-seat Grand Theater, and a 800-seat Blue Box plugged into a central cube. The cube accommodates the stages, back stages, and support spaces of the three theaters, allowing the Grand Theater and the Blue Box to be coupled to form a Super Theater—a massive space with factory quality for unsuspected performances. The Globe Playhouse with a unique proscenium allows experimentation with stage framing. The auditoria of the theaters with opaque facades appear as mysterious elements docking against the animated and illuminated central cube clad in corrugated glass.

The central cube is lifted off the ground to create a landscaped plaza. From there, a Public Loop – with portal windows open to views inside the three theaters – runs through the infrastructure and spaces for performing arts production that are typically hidden.

Rem Koolhaas, OMA Founding Partner: “When we first visited Taipei for the competition, we felt it was a city with an appetite for experiment. This building is a response to that discovery. We put three traditional theatres together in a way that offers theatre makers completely new opportunities to conceive spectacles and performances. We are proud to be part of the effort to realize the performing arts center, which became possible only with the knowledge, creativity, and perseverance of city, collaborators, and architects.”

David Gianotten, OMA Managing Partner – Architect: “It is extremely rewarding to see cultural creatives, audiences and visitors using the building both as we envisioned and in unexpected ways. The theatre culture and the vibrant street culture coexist in this public building and around the site. For us, this mix of cultures aptly captures the energy of Taipei, a city always open to changes."

Kris Yao, Founder of KRIS YAO | ARTECH, the Taiwanese design collaborating architect: “TPAC presents to the citizens of Taipei a peculiar yet familiar place. In many ways, it is new, foreign and extraordinary; but at the same time, it is friendly, intimate and amicable. It fits perfectly into the eccentric characteristics of Taipei and people love it. It is a true public building in its fullest sense.”
