Harmony IN construction project
Construction projects are one of the top places in Taiwan. Many cities can see a gorgeous showdown of homophones for construction projects. The following is a summary of the homophony of construction projects in several cities:
Taipei City
The construction project on the Datong District Daqiaotou MRT Station is named “Super·Station S” with the homophonic pronunciation of “station” and “like”, showing its advantages in transportation and integrating into the common local tone in Taiwan. In addition, there are “Xiaonanmen” near Xiaonanmen MRT Station, “Shishang 101” in Xinyi District, “Qingyou” and “MAX Fengjing” in Beitou District, etc., which can all be seen as having geographical advantages.

New Taipei City
YouTuber “Crazy Women Everywhere” G-Egg Pudding mentioned in the podcast that the people near Huilong MRT Station in Xinzhuang District, New Taipei City, like to use “Jie” as a homophone. There are projects such as “MRT GO Realm”, “MRT Zhenjing”, “MRT Jiji Jing” and “MRT Haojing”. It can be seen from the name that one of the advantages of the community is that it is close to the MRT.
Taoyuan City
The project “Nakajima Beautiful Home” is homophonic to the Japanese actress Mika Nakajima. The design “Nakajima” that is very popular among some home buyers is placed in each home to accurately target the customer group. For this customer group, “as long as there is Nakajima, it is Beautiful home”.

In addition, there is also a project in Zhongli District named after an actress, which is homophonic to the name of Taiwanese actress “Gui Lun Mei”. A female model with a similar image was also used to shoot advertisements for the project, which is even more impressive and adds to the project itself. Adds a lot of temperament.

Taichung City
The construction projects in Taichung City have a very high density of homophonic sounds, and they can be homophonic with the names of regions, roads, and rivers, such as “Dazhiran” on Dazhi Road and “Taiyuan yes” near Taiyuan Night Market. In addition, there is also a homonym of the dialogue series, Sakura Construction’s “Easy Living for Everyone”. In terms of meaning, we hope to convey that it is easy to live here. In publicity, we can also use various phrases of “Everyone Attention” to attract everyone’s attention. The symbols and text of warning signs are also used in the illustrations to echo each other.

Changhua County
The Villa in My Heart is a manor villa-style building in Tianzhong Town, Changhua. It focuses on villas that everyone can afford. Master Construction’s Xin You Villa fan page also misses the opportunity of homophonic pronunciation on the day of promotion. At Christmas, the main theme is “Give your family the most beautiful Christmas villa”, and “have a villa” and “buy a villa” from various entry points.

nantou county
Buying a house is one of the dreams of most people. A newly built project in Nantou County, the “Salary Housing City”, is promoting the idea that “all your wishes will come true” and you can easily buy a house with your “salary”.
kaohsiung city
“Yancheng Preface” in Yancheng District, Kaohsiung City is already one of the classic lists that will appear every time we discuss homophones. In addition, there are also many construction project names in Kaohsiung City that are homophones that will make you smile when you pronounce them, such as “Nan” “Zi Han”, “Yao Ni Guan” and “Wu Ji”. In addition, there is a building project in Sanmin District, Kaohsiung called “Shuheyuan”, which is the homophone of “Siheyuan” in Taiwanese Mandarin, and it is also very memorable.

It’s not easy to say that you get used to it from time to time
Not only can you see various homophones when walking on the road, but you will also encounter homophones when buying daily necessities and ordering food, such as: Guiji (beverage shop), He Tea House (beverage shop), Jitoujia (beverage shop), Hongmi Tea (beverage shop) ), Bari Lover (drink), Full Fire (drink), Ultra-fine core (eyeliner), Flat Pot Man (water filter bottle), Shuzhu Towel (wet wipes), Hemorrhoid Management (ointment), Cockroaches will be exterminated (cockroaches) medicine), cockroach love (cockroach medicine).
It can be found that homophones exist in every corner. The homophones are unique to Taiwan and may only be understood by Taiwanese. They have become the most unique feature in daily life and urban scenery. Homophones may continue to increase in life, creating common topics and laughter, and they will continue to interact with each other to produce more creative content.
