The historical building transformed into the cafe shop, cinema and expo gallery were new life of the SPOT. The SPOT used to called 臺北之家. It was the place that the late U.S. Vice President Richard M. Nixon fell for while on visit to Taiwan; he stayed in this old mansion instead of grand hotel suites for nights on end. It preserves its classical charms intact and rids art of redundant decoration, conveying to people the notion that art is an edifying source to modern life, which is as easy to approach as it is to absorb.

台北之家成立經緯

她,令當年的尼克遜,在擔任美國副總統來到台灣訪問時,沒住豪華大酒店,

卻看上這棟老洋房,還在這裡睡過幾個晚上。

她,保存了原來的古典風情,讓藝術不做過多裝扮,

令人體會藝術原來是現代人生活的養分,很容易親近,也很容易消化。

她,以歷史為中山北路注入了一抹亮麗粧顏,

以古蹟建築傳唱中山北路百年風流雅緻的人文歷史。以上節錄自臺北之家網站
