設計理念
北藝大的校園規劃與專業功能設置，承載了創校院長鮑幼玉先生的一句話：「要溫柔敦厚，將世界一流的專業技藝和設備，提供予台灣學子，使能親手運作、學習、創作與展現。」在這樣的理念下，舞蹈系創系主任林懷民先生也進一步提出期許：舞蹈廳的規劃須以能支援國際巡迴演出為標準，並需具備舞台六倍大的後台空間，以滿足從佈景製作、排練、吊掛、音響規劃、燈光控管，到後台外貨櫃集散區的各項需求，讓學生能完整體驗演出後的裝箱與運送流程。
因此，這座舞蹈廳的建構，正是在如此高度期待與明確目標下完成。它集結了國內各領域專業團隊共同合作，雖名為「大教室」，卻具備完整一流演出場地的各項功能。從演前的設備盤點、檢視到裝箱，每一個環節都是學生學習與實作的寶貴經驗。這樣的全程培訓，也逐步建立起台灣舞蹈演出的操作模式，而其最完整的實踐場域，正是在這座「舞蹈廳——大教室」中完成，並由授課老師進行指導與驗收。
空間的規劃設計不僅是實用的安排，更必須符合與國際一流演出場地同步接軌的標準。無論是在操作流程、設備應用、空間感或技術溝通上，皆須具備無縫銜接的能力，這也是鮑幼玉院長與林懷民主任最初的初心與堅持。
本案由建築師李祖原主持規劃，並由乙太顧問團隊負責燈光、吊架、貓道及控裝室等專業系統設計，豐閣設計擔任內部空間整合與製作，並由福茂音響協力完成，共同實現這個具備教學與演出並重的多功能舞蹈空間。
Design Concept
The campus planning and professional facilities of Taipei National University of the Arts embody the vision of its founding president, Mr. Pao Yu-Yu: “With gentleness and sincerity, we must provide world-class professional skills and equipment to Taiwanese students, enabling them to operate, learn, create, and perform with their own hands.”
Building upon this vision, the founding chair of the Department of Dance, Mr. Lin Hwai-min, emphasized that the Dance Theater must meet international touring standards. This includes a backstage area six times larger than the stage itself, designed to support scenery production, rehearsals, rigging, sound systems, lighting control, and even a container loading zone—allowing students to experience the full process of performance logistics, from stagecraft to packing and transportation.
Thus, this Dance Theater was realized under high expectations and clear objectives. Though officially called a “Grand Classroom,” it is fully equipped with the functions of a world-class performance venue. Every stage of the process—from equipment checks and setup to packing after performances—becomes a vital hands-on learning opportunity. This comprehensive training model has gradually shaped Taiwan’s standards for professional dance productions, with the “Dance Theater – Grand Classroom” serving as the most complete space for such practice, guided and assessed by the faculty.
The planning of this space goes beyond practicality; it was designed to meet international benchmarks, ensuring seamless compatibility in workflows, equipment applications, spatial experience, and technical coordination. This reflects the original vision and persistence of President Pao and Chair Lin.
The project was led by architect C. Y. Lee, with lighting, rigging, catwalk, and control systems engineered by Ether Consultants. Feng Ge Design undertook the interior integration and fabrication, while Fu Mao Audio provided technical collaboration. Together, these teams created a multifunctional dance space that balances both education and performance at the highest level.
