Information Renovation (graduation project)
Prof. Moongyu Choi Jan - June, 2017
Site : 2.296 m2 BCR : 938,10 m2(40.86%) GL : 795,96 m2 1F : 506,80 m2 2F : 441,88 m2 Location : 75-7 Bongwonsa-gil, Seoul
Surrounded by Ansan, this village is home to the elders of the Baekwonsa Temple in the north and students live mainly in the south. I hoped the building, which was originally used as a sauna, would serve as a community center for the neighborhood through renovation.
The renovation was carried out through the following process. 1. There was an original building that destroyed the original tophography 2. RC Structure building which the original building has has been visually and clearly shown to make it feel more tectonic.
4
3. The newly constructed spa space has been renovated with the existing building, restoring the destroyed terrain. 4. The natural context leading from the mountain leads to the inside of the building, and lightening through the skylight.
Idea Bricks and timber were originally soil and tree. These two materials, which grown up together, became bricks and timber as building materials, and they had their own physical properties and techtonics. Bricks form arches, curves and heavy but warm space by constructing spaces by stacking them.
03
Timber consists of vertical members that fit together to form space. What about this space where the two materials with different physical properties meet, connect and overlap? If the soil and the trees meet again, could it be a little bit like nature?
The physical and techtonical properties of the two materials, brick and timber, and the way in which the material accepts light and wind that change over time, creates an atmosphere of space.

In 1981, a brick factory was built here. After a while the factory was expanded with new bricks. In 2015, it is used as a milk company’s office and no longer functions as a factory.

The renovation will transform the building into an architectural school. The building is made up of three materials: wood, concrete, and brick.

Idea The architecture school I think is not only a school where students learn architecture through books, studio only, but also a space itself. Renovation was carried out using concrete, brick, and wood which are three representative materials widely used in architecture.
3rd floor plan
Each of the materials has their own physical properties and tectonics, creating their own boundaries, and constructed with a variety of tectonic spaces in limited boundaries.
Students will be able to see, touch, feel, and experience the physical properties and tectonics of each material.
4th floor plan
The materials can exist independently and sometimes overlap each other

Baegot Park is an area where the sea breeze blows a lot because it is located next to the West Sea, and a place where many reeds and plants are growing due to the influence of conservation wetlands. Two elements that form the locality felt on this site were wind and reeds.
So how can two natural elements, wind and reeds, be art, and what can people feel and think about through the art? I started this project with this question. Wind is an invisible element. If our architecture responds to the wind, as if the wind were blowing, the tree was shaking.
Couldn’t the natural element of wind reach people anew? And if the winds of different times change the feeling of space in the building, wouldn’t people feel the reeds around them differently?

Idea In 2013, a new city called Baegot was developed in Siheung, Gyeonggi-do. Baegot Park, which along the West Sea, is located in the center of the new town.
The contest was organized under the title of ‘ Public Art Project for Baegot Citzens’ and was held in the form of civic participation. After three workshops and an interim assessment, our work was finally elected.
How can the natural factor of wind be constructed and become public art as architecture? How can walls, one of the elements of architecture, change the space? we considered about these things and proceeded with the project.
welded butt joint
This pavilion consists of block modules of 250 * 150 * 150. Each of the 2,488 modules has different angles and gaps, making them a structure, forming a space. Also, when the wind blows, the mirror shakes and opens and closes the space.
The lower part of the pavilion is built up at wide intervals and is gradually narrowed upwards to create structural stability and It hides the reed and creates a sense of space that can only see the sky

The entire space is made up of red bricks. Bricks with three different thicknesses create space with their own depth.
As you enter the interior of the space, you become aware of the increasingly lower levels and feel that you are getting closer to the ground. It makes the sense of space surrounded by thick bricks more deeply.
Along with this, the bricks that are stacked in different ways make the space richer through directing the lights differently.

What does it mean to set up a memorial space in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the movement and the provisional government of the Republic of Korea?
A century ago, as of 2019, thought we should be able to experience and memorize the minds of the patriots who were forced to desperate 100 years ago through space.
It is impossible to imagine the hearts and minds of the independent fighters who struggled in order to defend their homeland.
The Wall of Centennial Memory is a space made of red bricks of 18m width, 7m length and 3.2m height. The red bricks piled up one by one symbolize the sacrifice of one sweat of the independent fighters for the country.
Each brick is built up in different thicknesses. Through the warmth of the brick felt through the thin walls and the heaviness of the light that pours through the space surrounded by thick brick walls, we will feel the weight and temperature of a century. Also, when we find ourselves gradually getting closer to the ground as we enter the inside, we will be able to get closer to the hearts of the fighters for a while.
