Asia Cement Building, Modern architectural monument in Taipei, Taiwan.
The Asia Cement Building is a modern structure in Taipei defined by clean lines, solid concrete surfaces, and balanced proportions. It currently serves as offices for the Asia Cement Corporation in the heart of the city.
Built in the second half of the 20th century under architect Wang Da-hong, it rose during Taiwan's rapid economic expansion. The structure embodies the industrial innovation of that growth era.
The building shows how Taiwan wove industrial production into its urban landscape, becoming a visible mark of economic transformation. Visitors see a structure where factory function and corporate identity speak through the same architectural language.
The building sits centrally and is easy to reach on foot, with its exterior visible from the street. The site is surrounded by regular pedestrian areas, allowing viewing without disrupting operations.
It was built using advanced concrete techniques that pushed construction boundaries of its time. These innovative methods remain visible in every detail of the facade and structure today.
