VOGUE Magazine reported
How many decades does one have in life—and would you devote ten years to a single dream?
In August 2024, VOGUE featured The Wandering Walls in an in-depth lifestyle report. This was not just a travel feature, but a story about vision, patience, and perseverance.
VOGUE invited the soul behind the project, founder Gavin, along with architect Grace Cheung, for a candid conversation. They looked back on the decade-long journey—from an idea on paper to a curved concrete wall rising in harmony with nature. They also reflected on how, amid the fierce winds of the Hengchun Peninsula, they preserved purity and silence, allowing space itself to become part of the dialogue.
As the feature’s title, “The Wandering Walls / A Promised Land of Ideals”, suggests, this is more than accommodation. It is a pursuit of an ideal lifestyle—overcoming challenges of terrain and climate, redefining travel culture, and capturing the attention of travelers, business leaders, and the arts. And as Gavin and Grace say, this is still only the beginning of their dream.
Feature Highlights
