Description of Our Community: As the capital of Taiwan, Taipei has heavy traffic, skyscrapers, and prosperity. This is the typical impression everyone holds towards Taipei. However, as Taipei citizens, we are aware that Taipei still has large room for improvement. The Balcony Project allows us to realize the serious consequences from people’s selfishness in maintaining the cleanliness of the environment and the resulting messy appearance of the city. The Meet Taipei: Design project shows the deficiencies of Taipei, despite its good quality of living. City Yeast is active in Taipei, and has brought gradual changes to Taipei through culture and design. It also encourages Taipei to be a better place. The city we live in is full of prosperity and diversity, and will continuously improve through City Yeast.

Project Description: How many people really care about Taipei, this bustling city? How many people truly love and hope for the best of Taipei? Taipei has many unique features to be discovered, which should be preserved, without being globalized and be lost. City Yeast is devoted to help urban residents discover the beauty of Taipei and cultivate their feelings toward the city, by attracting the residents’ attention and curiosity through creativity in order to develop city features all residents are proud of. We hope our research and simulation of the plans of City Yeast can show everyone the unique features of Taipei. Our joint efforts will make Taipei a better place. In order to explore and introduce City Yeast, this Cyberfair project will be presented in 5 sections: introduction of City Yeast, activities(including all the activities of City Yeast), overseas (foreigners participating in City Yeast), broadcast (interviews with relevant people, questionnaire survey) and school yeasts. The unique part of City Yeast is their creative, interesting and meaningful projects. In order to experience the contents and processes of their work, we implemented our own creative and meaningful activities on campus. This is the yeast effect in school.
