.....uncertainty is of the highest importance in the processes of creativity. .....it is even more important for a creative person to delay decisions and tolerate the state of uncertainty as long as possible. .....the design process should slow down, to condense thought and feeling, and to increase the possibility to be surprised. When you design with a pencil, instead of doing it quickly with the computer, the process is significantly slower. It is the time span that allows one to think about a lot of things simultaneously - and all of it is relevant. - Juhani Pallasmaa

Triumphal arch (arco di trionfo; arc de triomphe;) noun 1. a monumental archway, often erected in permanent materials as a commemorative structure, straddling the line of march of a victorious army during a triumphal procession.

01 “ INTELLIGENT ARCH ” THE MONUMENT TO INTELLIGENCE Christ & Gantenbein Option Studio, Harvard GSD Fall 2017 Location : Washington D.C.. US. Instructor : Emmanuel Christ, Christoph Gantenbein

MAY 27TH, 2017 This is the date when Google’s Alpha Go, the ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, defeated World No.1 Go Player Ke Jie. This event is known as “Triumph of Artificial Intelligence over Human Intelligence.” At the same time, it also can be regarded as Triumph of Human Intelligence over themselves; One of the biggest human intellectual achievements.

2. an architectural motif resembling in its composition an ancient Roman triumphal arch, having one high central archway flanked by side elements composed of lower arches, compartments, bas-reliefs, etc., the whole usually adorned by a huge order. The triumphal arch was used to commemorate “victorious generals or significant public events,” such as the founding of new colonies, the construction of a road or bridge, the death of a member of the imperial family or the accession of a new emperor.

(top) Arch of Titus, circa AD.82, Via Sacara, Italy (middle) Roosevelt Island & Interstate 66 Highway, Washington DC, United States

Project Site is on the Theodore Roosevelt Island, Washington D.C.. It is specifically located in the intersecting point between the Roosevelt Island and the Interstate 66 Highway. The highway acts as an entering road to the city, and numerous cars are passing through it. 120m cube-shaped triumphal arch acts as a city gate for cars to enter into Washington D.C..

TRIUMPHAL ARCH is a monumental structure, often erected in permanent materials as a commemorative structure, straddling the line of march of a victorious army during a triumphal procession. The Triumphal Arch was also used to commemorate “Victorious generals or significant public events,” such as the founding of new colonies, and the accession of new emperor. In the ancient Roman society, “ARCH” symbolized PERFECTION, and therefore Triumph as well. Arch was a symbol of Perfection and Technological Advances, and these were made possible by Human Intelligence. Arch was Perfection, Triumph, Technology, and Human Intellectual Achievement. This Project is constructing a contemporary version of Monument, the Triumphal Arch, to a event in which the artificial intelligence defeated human intelligence, and therefore the advances of intelligence are celebrated.

The tremendous size of black box building is Data Center, which is located on Roosevelt Island and the Highway, asserting its frontality as triumphal arch. Also, it is almost occupied by data storages and supporting facilities with few people.

Studies on threshold and passage are implemented throughout whole project to fully understand the quality of spaces and make the best use of it. It accompanied with the consciousness of sequences and particularly archway as well.

Thresholds, Passage, Sideview, and the Frontality

Bottom part of building is separated into two parts by highway. Inner surfaces of the arch are designed to expose data storage spaces as much as possible in order to make people easily look inside, even though they are passing through it fast.

Stack effect in natural ventilation is applied to this building, by using courtyard and adopting double-skin faรงade. The building could control the heat made by numerous data storage by both active and passive ventilation system.

DOUBLE SKIN FACADE

(top) It is basically post and lintel system, made of columns and beams. But on the center, archway is made of steel truss, transferring load from the top to the columns. Decision on using the truss is connected to the concept of Arch, because truss is one of the biggest structural invention, so it could be symbolized as the biggest advance in structural technology.

(bottom) All structural concrete beams are protruded out and penetrate the facade plane. They made a perfect grid system, which reminds people of electrical circuit board.

Second Semester Architecture Core, Harvard GSD Spring 2016 Location : Cocoanaut Grove Lane, Boston, MA. Instructor : Jennifer Bonner

Club “SERENITY” The Serenity Club is a club for Millenials, who are living unbelievably busy lives in contemporary society.

MEDIUM-SIZED STRUCTURAL BAYS FOUR UNITS AGGREGATION

We are responsible for our happiness that comes from getting good sleep and being conscious of what we have to do in order to live happy lives. Our club provides members with the best conditions for the best quality sleep and meditation without any interruption from contemporary distracting and chaotic lives. Club members can get the chances to concentrate on themselves and to do self-examination in spaces of building assigned for individuals. Our club is open 24/7/365 days a year, so get conscious of yourself whenever you want. The only thing to keep in mind is that all memebers should be ready to be calm and equable.

LARGE-SIZED STRUCTURAL BAYS AGGREGATION OF SMALL, MEDIUM, AND LARGE BAYS

BAY-DRIVEN ROOM AND SPACES BAY TRANSFORMATIONS

The plan starts from bottom as strictly regular grid plan, but it constantly changes its configuration as level rises. Not only just regular small module, but also many different sized modules make numerously variable joint spaces. Space of modules and seams among them also change, which makes spatial diversity in the building. Following that, lighting conditions varies in unexpectable ways.

As simply-extruded rectangular boxes can gather easily, the twisted bays also have their own regular system of aggregation, in which their surfaces and edges perfectly meet each other and the system works as a feasible structure.

STREETSCAPE Building facade form is lifted up like curtain and is open to the street. People enter into the building through the sunken area.

CORRIDOR Opened, all-connected corridor that is connecting every single unit without any interruption.

03 “ THE HOTEL ABOVE ” CLIMATE-RESPONSIVE HOTEL IN DOHA Third Semester Architecture Core, Harvard GSD Fall 2016 Location : Al Salata, Doha, Qatar Instructor : Elizabeth Christoferetti

“Hotel of Ceiling” Even though ceiling has a significant effect on people’s phenomenological and psychological experiences, it is still not considered seriously but is regarded as merely a result, especially in buildings that require high level of mechanical, organizational, and cultural complexity. Ceiling can represent the identity of space or program, by revealing certain inherent qualities lacking in other architectural elements. Ceiling should be considered as a primary element in design, related to programs, functions, circulations, and the creation of spatial effects. Ceilings not only functions as a medium for lighting and acoustics, but also functions for the dissipation of olfactory stimulus and thermal conduction. Ceiling should be a primary mechanism to integrate the multifaceted considerations in architecture.

CATALOGUE OF HISTORICAL CEILINGS Ceiling has changed for ages in many forms. Ceilings may be divided into two major classes - the “True” ceiling that is below surface of exposed structure of roof or slab, and “False” ceiling that uses another surface to conceal mechanical and electrical equipment. Degree of exposure, relation to program and atmosphere, shape, and volume are to be considered for designing ceiling.

Arch-shaped components are arranged in the module grid system to form spaces, such as hotel room, corridor, terrace, common space, and passage.

George Legendre Option Studio, Harvard GSD Spring 2018 Location : Edinburgh. Scotland. UK. Instructor : George Legendre

Buildings in Edinburgh are not tall, but disposition of buildings is rather dense, and there is quite much level differences throughout the entire city. Because of these, there are many archways in the buildings of the city, in order for people to pass through the buildings and blocks in different levels. Archways and the passing through experiences become a driving force for this project, which adopted arch-shaped components as a main design tool for the basic module units. On the site, there is recently renovated and extended hotel. Replacing the newly-extended part of the hotel with OSM(offsite manufacture) module can raise the issue on how OSM should react to building renovation and extention. This project investigates tensions among site condition, renovation, extension, spatial diversity, flexibility, OSM effectivity, and constraitns coming from pre-fabrication.

Recently renovated and extended hotel on the site has old medieval facade that is facing to Canongate street, which is one of the main streets in Edinburgh and has an inclined topography. The constraints coming from the site condition questions how OSM can be utilized for architecture design.

_ 5.4.1 Concept COMMON GROUND is South Korea’s first and the world’s largest container shopping mall complex built with 200 shipping containers. It redefines the conventions of retail platforms by reinterpreting the role of culture, and focusing on connecting people for the sake of creating meaningful value for all involved. Common Ground is the result of an experiment of revitalising unused land in the middle of the city. By applying prefab methods, e.g. producing modules in a factory, transporting them to the construction site and assembling them on-site, it was possible to reduce the construction time of the 5300m2 building to five months. In order to maximise the usage efficiency of the elongated rectangular shaped land, the architectural form is based on a center square connecting two buildings. At the traffic-heavy main street side, container modules were stacked to give the building exterior more impact and draw attention from passers-by. The mass on the opposite side has been kept open to naturally connect to the visitor flow of the surrounding environment and invite people in more easily. _ 5.4.2 Program

CONTAINER MODULE GRID SYSTEM

Inspired by the market as a contact point of connection, the design divides the space into a Market Hall and a Street Market. The design concept emphasises the modularity of shipping containers and turns them into an architectural icon. Street Market draws inspiration from an alley market and keeps the texture of the container intact as much as possible. Market Hall capitalises on trusses with strong architectural functions and serve as a reminder of the feeling of a market. In this part, the verticality of stacked container modules and the frames between containers are emphasised.

_ 5.1.1 Program

12.5’

This idea of impermanence and movability originating in Metabolism’s concept of the city influenced every step of the design and construction of Nakagin Capsule Tower. According to their different ‘‘metabolic cycles,’’ Kurokawa configured the building with three basic components: the permanent structure (two ferroconcrete shafts), the moveable elements (144 capsules), and the service equipment (utilities). Their designed were based on different life spans. Kurokawa envisioned that the main shafts would last at least sixty years, while the capsules would be due for replacement in twentyfive to thirty-five years. He noted that the life span of the capsule was not a mechanical one, but rather a social one, implying that changing human needs and social relationships would necessitate such periodic replacement.

_ 5.1.2 Concept The utility pipelines are attached to the outside of the capsules. The towers rise to different heights, and the capsules are arranged in a seemingly random pattern, suggesting an ongoing process: the shaft could grow and more capsules could be piled up. Kurokawa regarded this incomplete look as the ‘‘esthetic of time,’’ referring to Metabolism’s central notion of the city as process _ 5.1.3 Capsule The capsule measures 7.5 · 12.5 · 7 foot and is built of a lightweight, welded steel frame—identical to a shipping container in structure and size—and covered with galvanized rib-reinforced steel panels finished with a coat of Kenitex glossy spray. There is a Plexiglas porthole window on each capsule, 4¼ foot in diameter. _ 5.1.4 Construction Construction took place in separate locations, both on-site and off-site. The only on-site construction was the two towers and space for utilities and equipment. Capsules were prefabricated and assembled in another city by a manufacturer that produced railroad vehicles and vessels. After transport to the building site, they were hoisted by crane and fastened to the concrete shafts starting from the bottom up. Each capsule was installed independently and cantilevered from the shaft so that it could be removed without affecting others. The construction of the entire Nakagin Capsule Tower took only a year (http://www-tandfonline-com.ezpprod1.hul.harvard.edu/doi/pdf/10.1111/j.1531-314X.2011. 01158.x?needAccess=true)

_ 5.2.1 Concept Inaugurated on May 18, 2006, the Freitag Flagship Store is a 26-meter-high tower made with 17 shipping containers. The containers are stacked and held in place using material only from the shipping industry. The shop, which is inteded to be permanent, includes four floors and steps to a rooftop platform. The idea for this shop came from the owners and graphic designers Daniel and Markus Freitag, and the structure was created with “rusty, recycled freight containers [...] gutted, reinforced, piled up, and secured.”

Low enough not to violate the city’s restriction on highrise building, located on Geroldstrass between two of the city’s main thoroughfares - the Hardbrucke flyover and Feroldrampe approach road to one side, and the railway viaduct and central train station approach tracks to the other - the store has a site befitting of its image. 5.2.3 Program Indeed, the fit with Freitag’s products is quite natural since they produce and market “bags and accessories made from used materials and found on the road; old truck tarpaulins tanned by exhaust fumes, cycle inner tubes and used seat belts, as well as the new resource of used airbags.” (Architecture Now! 5 by Phillip Jodidio. P 504.505)

From the front, a cube of four containers to the left of the tower comprise the entrance, cash counter and office. the floors of the adjacent stack of nine containers are cut out to accommodate an internal metal stair running the full height of the tower. On its right side are four sales levels. at the top of the tower is an open platform with views of the city, lake and mountains. The roof deck, holding a telescope, is set below the top edge of the highest container. The metal doors of the containers were moved to accommodate glazed entrance doors and full-height windows on each of the four sales levels.

The standard container is a standalone, structurally optimised system. The external skin was interrupted by stairs and large facade openings, strengthening measures were necessary inside the containers themselves. The containers are otherwise self-cotntained and are linked to one another only by the sort of frictional fittings used in shipbuilding. They can also be replaced in the future. Wind loads are transferred to the foundations by exposed diagonal bracing. The costs of a 1.5 m deep foundation, the additional structural measures and time consuming intensive supervision pushed this tower structure financially in to the cost zone of a conventional high rise building.” (Principles of Construction, Prefabricated Systems, Knaack)

Tongue-and-Groove Joint System Basic module, based on CLT panel, is made to minimize the number of extra joint components. Instead of using clips of separate metal joints, every each panel has their own set of teeth that help them easily join each other. This module naturally makes tongue-and-groove system between upper and lower units when they are stacked, stabilizing against lateral forces.

Basic CLT Module Simple replacement or different way of assemblage enables numerous possibilities of makings diffent units. It also provides structural functions as well. There are structural units that contributes to the flexibility of unit assemblage, which eventually makes another flexibility in unit arrangement and space making process.

Basic module is an assemblage of CLT panels that have enough flexibility to make different types of units. It accommodates private bathroom and terrace within the hotel unit.

Building Organization First floor is made of concrete arch units that effectively support entire structure, which is naturally connected to existing old building part behind. Light hotel units made of CLT panels are stacked on top of the heavy concrete structure. There is a huge atrium at the center of the building, and two light-wells that are made of curved unit components and hotel units. Those hotel units have translucent window towards the light-well so that those units can get more natural lights.

Rare books library design should set protecting books as top priority. Especially the library site is on top of waterway, the Emerald Necklace in Boston, where books can get damaged easily. Original topography is exaggerated in terms of height and the number of layers in order to protect rare books from water and humidity. In addition to the dynamic topography condition, bunch of rectangular box layers provide library users with a variety of phenomenological experiences. People in the library are disoriented in vertical level and horizontal direction by the architecture, which make people feel strange for surrounding landscape shown through windows. Exaggerated topography is modified and edited by space boxes that are inserted on top of it. Arrangement of those boxes makes unexpected, but pleasant harmony among flat, stepped, and curved surfaces, which naturally provides spatial and circulatory variety.

Phase I - Questioning on the function Georges Perec, Espèces d’Espaces (Species of Spaces) “I have several times tried to think of an apartment in which there would be a useless room, absolutely and intentionally useless. It wouldn’t be a junkroom, it wouldn’t be an extra bedroom, or a corridor, or a cubby-hole, or a corner. It would be a functionless space. It would serve for nothing, related to nothing. (...) A space without a function. Not without any precise function, but precisely without any function; not pluri-functional (everyone knows how to do that), but a-functional. It wouldn’t obviously be a space intended solely to ‘release’ the others ( lumber-room, cupboard, hanging space, storage space, etc.) but a space, I repeat, that would serve no purpose at all. (...) It takes a little more imagination no doubt to picture an apartment whose layout was based on the ”Functioning of the Senses”. We can imagine well enough what a gustatorium might be, or an auditory, but one might wonder what a seeery might look like, or an smellery, or a feelery.”

07 Pre-fabricated Dormitory Module Plan

“ FUNCTION, SENSES, AND FUNCTIONING OF THE SENSES ”

This investigation was started from plan of a dormitory, which is typically functional. Dormitory should be efficient at accommodating students as many as possible, providing minimal spaces per person. One line-shaped corridor, common bathroom, repetition of equal square boxes, and the minimum movement distance in the building are all the key elements of function of dormitory.

“ Senses instead of Function “

Function Analysis Drawings I / Pencil and Pen on Paper / 2014

What if Architecture is designed based on Logic of Senses, rather than based on that of function or pragmatic needs...? Inspired by the sentences and clauses that are mentioned in “Spieces of Spaces, and other pieces” by George Perec, the thesis project questions on underlying premise of architecture that has been taken for granted, investigates on alternate possibility in architecture that probably contradicts with the basic premise, and pursues the outcomes that one cannot expect to see inside conventioanal, functional logic in architectural design.

Function Analysis Drawings II / Pencil on Paper / 2014

This thesis project was started by casting doubt on the validity of functional architecture. More specifically, I wondered how theatre architecture and the surrounding spaces could transform when function was substituted with senses; this in hope of creating spaces where we could intimately appreciate them. Moving away from the overwhelming dominance of the sense of sight, instead, I focused on the other senses: sound, touch, smell and taste, to which we are relatively less perceptive. This was meant to explore the possibility of architectural design based on instinctive knowledge in lieu of learned knowledge.

Physical models of different programs / 7 x 7 inches / Mixed Media / 2014

Phase II - Inducing sensory consciousness In order to make people appreciate their surrounding environments and spaces, something strange or weird should happen in front of them. I decided to arrange inharmonious programs together to bring about a strange situation that they would not expect. Because of the expectation based on the common sense, people should use their senses other than the sense of sight to avoid something unexpected. This makes people feel the spaces with more sophistication.

Arranging Inharmonious Programs together The second physical model is made of Theatre, Runway, Attic, Toilet, Dressroom, Slope, Cafe, reading room, and mirror boxes. The mirror boxes enables people to see others in completely different spaces, especially not realizing where they are. The boxes function as a passage of eye sight, smell, and sound, connecting separated spaces together. This eventually make the occupants feel uncomfortable and raise a question about the spaces. The first physical model consists of Theatre, Corridor, Toilet, Staircase, Cafe, and Galleries, which are generally not harmonious programs. This combination was made to give rise to strange situation, which influences peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s consciousness and unconsciousness.

Physical model of Inharmonious Programs II / 47 x 39 x 31 inches / Mixed Media / 2014

Phase III - Substitution of Senses for function I wondered how theatre architecture and the surrounding spaces could transform when function was substituted with senses; this in hope of creating spaces where we could intimately appreciate them. Moving away from the overwhelming dominance of the sense of sight, instead, I focused on the other senses: sound, touch, smell and taste, to which we are relatively less perceptive. This was meant to explore the possibility of architectural design based on instinctive knowledge in lieu of learned knowledge. Consequently, these theatre spaces were planned based on sound and formed according to the soundscape leaving behind the several necessary but inharmonious programs to be arranged together thus permitting focus and rise to the sensory consciousness, allowing us a new type of experience.

The general form of theatre gradually transforms as other programs are added. The presence of runway, which would act as a device to interrupt the eyesight in the theatre, devides the whole theatre space into two parts. Other spaces, which also would distract people from performances in the theatre, are placed in front of and above of the stage. One part of the theatre is lifted up, and a general form of theatre is newly made. Not only that, disoriented theatre, floating runway, and theatre space based on soundscape are generated. Eventually, the entire theatre have several kinds of spatial qualities.

Cafe Anacoustic Space

Drive-through Auditorium

About Woofer Speaker and Soundscape Spaces Sound spread through all the crevices and passages all over the spaces, reaching Sound Theatre in which it is completely dark. Daylight Theatre in which people lie down and listen to sound, Mirror Box in which all interiors are made of mirror, Outer Road where cars run through, and other spaces, such as corridor, the stands, and parking lot. The sound makes all people have strange experiences they would have not ever had, even though they perform different activities each other.

In the Auditorium, audiences can see the runway show and performance at the stage simultaneously, which makes people feel distracted and sensitive to their sense of sight. The visual and acoustic harmony or discordance among auditorium, runway, and stage give people new types of experiences.

In the Runway, the boundaries among stage, runway and auditorium vary at any time, because The Glass Walls are transculent and semi-invisible. This enables those different programs work together and separately.

In the Visual Media Box, users can listening to the music or sound from the central woofer speaker, lying down on the floor and enjoying the video displayed at the surface of the ceiling.

Phase IV Space of Senses and New types of Experience + Analyzing the Senses of the space Starting from the whole spatial formation based on the soundscape, I intended to give occupants new types of experience by arranging different programs together and making strange combinations of spaces. The occupants would feel familiar and strange simultaneously with these spaces. Several emotions and feelings would crowd through their mind, making them experience new types of experiences.

In the Mirror Box, interior space is infinitely mirrored and copied by mirror walls. People feel dizzy or something strange, or they could feel the sense of freedom through the infinite space, which incessantly expands.

In the Visibility-Changeable Toilet, people can control the visibility of their surroundings. Almost all of the partitions in the toilet are made of transculent and reflective glass walls. People concentrate on the light and visibility of the place where they are occupying.

Phase V - Exploring the feasibility The physical section model was made in 1:20 scale ( 42 x 51.8 x 55.4 inches ) in order to identify the spaces I imagined and to investigate more about the spatial realtionship and the feasibility. I expected to feel detailed organization of the spaces by my eyes, hands, and more importantly by my whole body.

”Fetish makes another Fetish” The fetish about books also becomes the source of fetish about a study in which there are lots of bookshelves. People have a natural tendency to make their surrounding spaces suitable for them, and therefore one can see an individual’s life style, characteristic, and interest from his or her private study and its spatial qualities, such as the placement of bookshelves, principle of book arrangement, and the subjects of books. There are several types of fetishes in their own studies, and each study can be an indicator of one’s fetishes. This project started with question as to whether it is possible that a public library can be made of several private studies. If the library is actually the fruit of people’s fetishes about books, it may be likely that individuals’ private studies, which are symbols of fetishes, can constitute whole body of library.

08 “ FETISH LIBRARY ” PUBLIC LIBRARY MADE OF PRIVATE STUDIES

Fetish about a Study

A study is sometimes used as visual background of an educated person. It clearly portrays the owner’s fetish visibly.

Option Studio, Koomin University 4th Year - 2nd Semester, 2013 Location : None Instructor : Prof. Helen Hejung Choi

“ Fetish makes another Fetish “ Library may be the fruit of people’s fetishes about books. This is due to the fact that books are objects make people have obsessions about knowledge, collection, categorization, and preservation, which are key elements in organizing library. The fetish about books also becomes the source of fetish about a study in which there are lots of bookshelves. People have a natural tendency to make their surrounding spaces suitable for them, and therefore one can see an individual’s life style, characteristic, and interest from his or her private study and its spatial qualities, such as the placement of bookshelves, principle of book arrangement, and the subjects of books. There are several types of fetishes in their own studies, and each study can be an indicator of one’s fetishes.

Physical study models about Relationships between Studies / Mixed Media / 2013

Through the physical models, which are made to study on the relationships between studies, I found a lot of methods of organizing spaces.

The Public Library which is made of Private Studies / 21 x 30.7 inches / Pencil on printed paper / 2013

Even tiny differences of spatial arrangement result in a huge change in library’s spatial quality, because this library is made of several studies, which represent a quality of extreme privacy.

Entrance to 2nd Floor ( The Private Book Bank )

In ‘Fetish Library’, each user can actually occupy a study. One desk and one chair placed in the study and the surrounding walls reveals that it is the place where only one person could fully use. Other people would be careful when they enter or pass by studies, caring too much about person who already occupies the desk placed in the study, even though it is a public library. This conflict between one’s ‘personal fetish’ and ‘public character’ of the library makes users be sensitive to all parts of the spaces.

Arbitrary-looking arrangement of studies makes a spatial quality like that of a maze. Almost all of walls are filled with books. Users go through the space that is full of a number of books in all directions. They would feel as though they swim inside the pile of books.

Extreme Conflict between Privacy and Publicity Public Library and ‘ Private Book Bank ’

Despite the fact that the main program of this architecture is the public library, there are some spaces which have qualities different from it. On the second floor, there are ‘Private Book Bank’ studies where access is allowed for specific people who have the rights to enter. These are used as private studies in which some people store their books. Circulation system in the library is so complicated that only people who regularly use the private book bank or who accustomed to the whole space are able to find their destination easily. These individual circulations depend on users’ memories, which also make the whole spaces very private.

Atmosphere in Fetish Library Some parts of the second floor spaces are open to the public, used as quasi-private studies. People who use these spaces would be able to feel as though they possess a study, which gives rise to the ‘fetish’ about a study. From tiny small spaces to large spaces, all spaces in this library is dominated by ‘Fetish’ about book and study.

09 “ MADANG MIXER ” COLLECTIVE HOUSING AREA FOR LOW-INCOME Architecture Core Studio, Koomin University 3rd Year - 2nd Semester, 2009 Location : Yangjae-dong, Seoul, South Korea Instructor : Prof. Sum-hoon Oh

“ MADANG in Korea ”

‘Madang’ of Korean traditional architecture took responsibility for harmonious atmosphere in family, providing space in which they can get together, spend daily hours, and talk to each other. Alternatively, the living room in modern housing plays such role in contemporary society. Underlying idea this project is based on is trying to consider the collective housing area as a bigger scale version of Han-Ok, the Korean traditional house, and to investigate on how the design and space could be transformed when the notion of Korean traditional MADANG is applied to design of housing area.

There are 19 different versions of housing unit in this collective housing area, according to its size, natural light exposure, facing direction, and shape. Because the biggest and smallest units do not have a sharp difference and every unit is designed for low-income bracket, these variations are expected to make pleasing variety of housing experiences.

MAIN COURTYARD Courtyard of collective housing is huge open space where people gather and do various activities. Some plants and wooden deck make people feel that it is continuous from surrounding site condition.

MAIN COURTYARD Layers of housing trays are stacked on top of each other, and it is connected to ground by slanted ramps, which makes it possible for people to ramble around the whole complex, enjoying scenery.

It is intended to eliminate the hierarchy, which is caused by different spatial conditions of individual buildings, in order that people cannot feel the sense of difference of their neighbors. The plans from first floor to fourth floor are irregularly arranged as a combination of 18 different housing units, which enables the occupants who have different backgrounds mingle with each other.

Elevation made by unit arrangement The elevation clearly reveals the diversity of unit arrangements. The appearances are different for each floors according to the arrangements of units. The diversely mixed plan generates the unexpected encounters and communications between the inhabitants.

Buffer Zone Placement There are void spaces between housing units and corridors, which make it possible that people are protected from external interruptions and that people who live in different floor can sometimes communicate with each other. This is to reduce direct noise between those spaces and to protect privacy by decreasing accessibility, using physical distance. In addition, people who live in the low floor can enjoy the natural daylight that comes from the sky.

Club “SERENITY” The Serenity Club is a club for Millenials, who are living unbelievably busy lives in contemporary society. We are responsible for our happiness that comes from getting good sleep and being conscious of what we have to do in order to live happy lives. Our club provides members with the best conditions for the best quality sleep and meditation without any interruption from contemporary distracting and chaotic lives. Club members can get the chances to concentrate on themselves and to do self-examination in spaces of building assigned for individuals. Our club is open 24/7/365 days a year, so get conscious of yourself whenever you want. The only thing to keep in mind is that all memebers should be ready to be calm and equable.

The space functions as an inner court, breaking boundary between inner and outer space. Children can enjoy a lot of outdoor activities without being exposed to dangerous situation.

Children can feel that they are always with the nature in the roof garden, going through plants and flowers. Instead of the kindergarten where they should study and learn something, I hope to present them the kindergarten that makes them to spontaneously get together and spend their invaluable time, leaving behind their precious memory.

Main Courtyard Space (outdoor space)

The courtyard in this kindergarten is the core space where children can easily access from anywhere in the building and where they play liberally with fresh air. At the same time, the space is perfectly protected from potential outer danger, which gives it more stability.
