掘旅 X 花磚 X 記憶 ( Journey x Vintage Tiles x Memory)
台灣老花磚源自於日本，盛行於1920~1935年間，
當時以瓷磚裝飾屋舍不僅為了美感，同時也是財力的象徵。
那一輩甚至有些年輕人以此為夢想而努力奮鬥著，⋯⋯
然而隨著時代變遷，老屋汰舊換新，
曾經鮮艷的花磚也漸漸沒入塵土。
幸運的是在掘旅的落腳處，這棟四十年的老房裡，發現了一處又一處的驚喜。第一代屋主的妻子挑選了幾款樣式不一的瓷磚妝點著家中各樓層，花色風格各不相同，部份含蓄、部份華麗，可以想見其當時抱著多麼雀躍的心情在將心中對於家的夢想實現。
老物件之所以有保存價值在於能讓新舊之間有對話的機會，歡迎找天來掘旅的花磚上留下足跡，也讓曾經的風華印象進駐你的記憶。
Taiwanese vintage tiles which originated from Japan was popular in 1920-1935.
Using the tiles to decorate houses is not only for the beauty purpose, but also the symbol of wealth. Young people from that generation made these as their dreams and worked with all their hearts. However, time have changed, old buildings are easily being forgotten, and vintage tiles which were once bright were buried into dust. Luckily, when we met Journey hostel, this forty-years-old building, we found surprises one another. Wife of the first owner used several types of tiles decorating the building, patterns and style are all different, and some are implicit while other are magnificent.
It’s easily to imagine how cheerful it is to make your dreaming home become place where you live in.
The value of keeping vintage items are making a conversation between old and new.
Welcome to Journey hostel and leave your footprints on the tiles, let the old times gorgeous impression enter your memory.
