Pre-Christian
history relates that when the world was young, father
Noah had a dream. In this dream it was revealed to him
that the world as he knew it was facing immanent destruction.
Therefore he should build an Ark; A vessel of such size
and strength that it could transport the essence of
the creatorˇs genius, through the darkness and storms
to a place of safety and prosperity. Current thinking
at the time held that small was beautiful, and that
the mass transportation of such a diverse and demanding
cargo was at best foolish and at worst madness. But
Noah ignored his skeptics, and as the stormy waters
rose over the mountain tops, Captain and cargo sailed
off in search of a brave new world.
The echoes of this great event are felt the world over,
with lessons learnt by every new generation each time
the story is retold. Nowhere is this tradition more
evident than in the headquarters of the Ark International
Corporation in Taiwan. Conceived as a vessel to carry
the finest exponents of the tool makerˇs art to markets
across the world, the planners knew that this would
be no ordinary venture. The corporate vessel had to
be big enough to house each and every example of the
finest tools the market could offer, but not so big
that it would founder in the volatile storms of economic
upheaval. Every stage of the structure had to be subject
to meticulous planning . As with Noah there was no room
for passengers, every centimeter of space was accounted
for, nor yet could any of the vital inventory be left
behind. As dark clouds gathered in stock markets the
world over, the millions of man hours planning the launch
of this great venture became reality.
Ark International took to sea!
