With what one might see as a foolish idealism and a passion for flowers and flower vases, they first established a private work place, firing pottery and planting a garden. Because Chen Wen-hui loves Taiwanese culture, the pottery, plants, buildings and gardens took on a decidedly Taiwanese flavor.

原只是私人出於惜花連盆，憑著一股傻勁種花燒陶的個人工作坊，卻因陳文輝對台灣土地人文的熱愛，刻意將燒陶、植物栽種、庭園造景的風格導向台灣土味，而開拓出既草根又典雅、獨一無二的華陶窯。
