Alice in Wonderland Extraordinary Scale
EXTRAORDINARY The goal of this project is to make an ‘Extraordinary Scale Experiences’ in this hotel. These days, people tend to travel all around in order to experience something different with their daily life. And in terms of tourism, hotel is one big part of the travel experiences. However, hotels have almost same configuration wherever they are located in, and the spatial experiences are quite similar through the time. They are seeking the way to make more rooms as much as possible, and pursue the efficiency. They have standardized spaces. In this project, I wanted to make a hotel which different with typical hotel, and let people experience extraordinary scale. SURREAL EXPERIENCES I thought I can make the extrarodinary feelings by distorting the typical scale experiences of hotel. I could find out the strategies that make extraordinary feeling from the surrealistic method. So I took three strategies; distortion, exaggeration, and juxtaposition. This hotel can be like a fun house in the amusement park. In fun house, they distort and change the perception to sense the spaces. and people enjoy feeling this oddness.
Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do. So she was considering, in her own mind, whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her. There was nothing so very remarkable in that; nor did Alice think it so very much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself, “Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!”; but, when the Rabbit actually took a watch out of its waistcoat-pocket, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and, burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge. The rabbit-hole went straight on like a tunnel for some way, and then dipped suddenly down, so suddenly that Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself before she found herself falling down what seemed to be a very deep well. “Well!” thought Alice to herself. “After such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling downstairs! How brave they’ll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn’t say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!” Down, down, down. Would the fall never come to an end? “I wonder how many miles I’ve fallen by this time?” she said aloud. “I must be getting somewhere near the centre of the earth. Let me see: that would be four thousand miles down, I think—”
“yes, that’s about the right distance—but then I wonder what Latitude or Longitude I’ve got to?”. Presently she began again. “I wonder if I shall fall right through the earth! How funny it’ll seem to come out among the people that walk with their heads downward! The antipathies, I think—” “but I shall have to ask them what the name of the country is, you know. Please, Ma’am, is this New Zealand? Or Australia?” “And what an ignorant little girl she’ll think me for asking! No, it’ll never do to ask: perhaps I shall see it written up somewhere.” Down, down, down. There was nothing else to do, so Alice soon began talking again. “Dinah’ll miss me very much to-night, I should think!” “I hope they’ll remember her saucer of milk at tea-time. Dinah, my dear! I wish you were down here with me! There are no mice in the air, I’m afraid, but you might catch a bat, and that’s very like a mouse, you know. But do cats eat bats, I wonder?” And here Alice began to get rather sleepy, and went on saying to herself, in a dreamy sort of way, “Do cats eat bats? Do cats eat bats?” and sometimes, “Do bats eat cats?” for, you see, as she couldn’t answer either question, it didn’t much matter which way she put it. She felt that she was dozing off, and had just begun to dream that she was walking hand in hand with Dinah, and was saying to her, very earnestly, “Now, Dinah, tell me the truth: did you ever eat a bat?” when suddenly, thump! thump! down she came upon a heap of sticks and dry leaves, and the fall was over. <Lewis Carrol, Alice’s Advantures in Wonderland>

In the urban point of view, this hotel is not conforming to the urban grid. The building is rotated a little bit and it can be seen as an object inside the strict grid of the city and the landscape of the site. The small components can be seen as eccentric ingredients as well. Jayeon Kim 23

This project was started with the thinking about the boundary between public and private spaces. The goal is to define the degree of public and private spaces and design a share house in Brooklyn. I started with the Han-ok as a precedent, I focused on the traits of it, and apply it with modification in this house. This house is fully sharable, and flexible house that adapt to the changes through the time, and according to the residents.

how to utilize
This house is about flexible occupying and adapting to the changes.
People in this house share all the common areas. By doing this, Each cluster has their implied area that the room owner has. But basically all the house members can access all the area. User can utilize bigger area by sharing the public spaces. This blank spaces also can be occupied exlusively by modifiying their wall of rooms.
Each room has its own blank space as a buffer, and they can adjust the function of it. These blank spaces can be used as any functions, and this also can be the circulation of this house. Therefore, there is no waste of sapces for circulation. All the common areas can be not only the circulation, but also the room for activities.
All the basic units of this house are equal. This equal spaces give opportunity to utilize this house more various way.
There is no fixed unit or area in this house. The only rigid space is the rooms - private areas. And all the units can be occupied freely by the purpose of the users. Also, common areas can be defined with the people who take the rooms around the area.
People can take adjuscent rooms to make the cluster, or get detached rooms to define their areas differently.

Han-Ok: Korean Traditional Dwelling
Maru: Buffer Space This house have universal space called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Maruâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. This spaces are used as living, dining, and social area. And Maru is the buffer between private spaces, so this keeps privacy between private rooms. And this space takes a role of transition space. Maru belongs to no one, at the same time, belongs to everyone.
Urban Han-ok :Flexible Occupying There is no particular way to occupy this house. People can use spaces by their needs.

Many poeple in New York City tend to share an apartment. They occupy their own room and share the common spaces. This can only serve minimum demand of spaces. They even modify the living room to the bedroom for lower the rent. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t share life in house. And this situation in NYC have an opportunity about share house in Brooklyn.
Change of Dwelling Type in US The percent of the married couple is decreasing, especially with children. And the percent of single parent and one-person households is increasing year after year. According to this research, the needs about the type of dwelling is changing as time passes. But the existing housing cannot adapt to the changing.
Required Spaces by Lifecycle Changing As life cycle changes, peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s financial status and spatial demand are also changes. But the usual houses has fixed units, so they cannot adjust their house to the life.

Blank Space and Special Features Blank spaces can offer divers special features which could not afford to get when people do not share the common spaces. Usually, people do not go to other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s area, but with this special attributes attract people and make the community by doing activities together.
Special Features Distributed special programs attract people to come to utilize it. Even though the area have implied territoriality, people go to other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s area to use these programs. With this programs, people more interact with each other and this makes community.

The main theme of this studio was color. Color is all around the world, but it is not considered as main concept of the architecture. In this semester, the Arctic - monochromatic environment - as the site, we designed a Field Research Station with individual color scheme. I studied on black and white/light as a color scheme and proposing the adaptable and changable research station.

Water In order to make a building that can be adapt to the various climates, I focused on the character of the water. Water is the main constituent of the Arctic area, and also closely related to New York City as well. Water changes its states when it is related to the outside condition such as temperature, humidity, pressure, and so on. With this character, the skin of the building can be adjusted to the various condition. Also, the water can be worked as heat container. For example, when the water became ice, it releases heat to surroundings.

Ice Extent Chages Ice in the Arctic area is melting during several decades. This causes various issues not only in the Arctic area, but also to all around the earth. Not only that, Ice extent is greatly changing throughout a year. Since the satellite image is not high enough to see the accurate condition of the ice edge, it has to be measured on land. In order to do this, I am proposing the research station which is moving around the Arctic area to observe it.

Urban Cultural Material: Busan Opera House International Competition for Opera House in Busan, Korea
The goal of this project is to design a opera house in Busan, which is representative port city of Korea. The citizens of Busan are longing for cultural facility, especially a opera house. Busan is clearly different from other cities. The infrastructure of the city is formed linearly, attached to the main street. The opera house will be placed at a former port. The scene of that place has been changed dramatically, and containers are replaced by fancy buildings. I designed an opera house that contains the vanishing memory of the city. Unlike other opera houses, this project uses containers that can be used as facilities by citizens. This opera house will be more easily accessed and friendly to citizens.
Enormous land is created off the shore of Busan. The Opera House will be built there. Many people may have come up with some specific images - the sleek opera house at the Sydney Harbor; the high-tech ones built in Oslo, Copenhagen, and Beijing; or the Palais Garnier in Paris. These opera houses act as, and are trying to be, landmarks, i.e. icons and representative images promoting the cities that they are located in. The fact that the city can accommodate world-class opera and such opera are willing to come to the city means that the scope of cultural activity for the resident expanded, and also that residents with sufficient economic capaity increased. However, in contrast to the vast amount of space and financial cost contributed to the opera house, the actual time and space utilized for the resident is coparably small. The opera house occupies the best open space in the city but ordinary people experience only the exterior space. The main space is hidden behind the stubborn skin, closed to the public. Each existing opera house provides the image of landmark, visually representing particular cities. Usually, little constraints are imposed on the shape of the opera house, and consequently the exuberant design became cliche since every opera house seeks originality through unique shape. The eccentric shape of the opera house can no longer effectively take us to the goal; building an landmark in the city. There lies the question. What can, and should be provided by the new opera house in Busan? Can it be the resource of giant culture space where the various cultural activities in the city can be accomodated, above the basic requirement of providint adequate building to run opera? Can it be an interactive landmark successfully representing the city of Busan and the activities occuring in, unlike the architectural sculptures that can be placed in any city without being too awkward? The beginning of the solution to unravel the entangled thread were the physical attributes and systems of the container port, existing at the project site. After finding programs and spaces that can be flexible through thorough research, we propose a system generating flexible space which can repond to situation, utilizing the port facilities and the modular system of shipping containers.

Opera House: Closeness An Opera House is a symbol of a city and a significant cultural space. However, it sometimes doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allow easy accessibility: a lobby and stages are only activated when performances are held, and spaces of back stage are always impossible to approach for visitors.

URBAN CULTURAL MATERIAL
Opera House: Openness and Flexibility Most spaces of Opera House except essential rehearsal rooms are opened to the public as a park. People can experience the process of making performances in multiple levels when they visit this in-between parks. Also, the parks increase the quality of light and other environmental factors for the rehearsal rooms. Using containers which can be easily found and used in Busan make it possible to accept changing demands of rooms by time.
Containers: System and Image The needs of flexible space for Opera House is corresponding to the modular system for harbor effectively, and containers are not only a modular system for making spaces but also routine scenes of Busan. The original purpose of this site was a Harbor. The functions of the harbor have been moving to new site, and consequently, sceneries of Busan have been changed continuously. Therefore, abandoned containers can be used to make unique urban views through containing local characters.
Logics of space arrangement Area of rehearsal places and stages takes most of the site area. In order to avoid this, we allocate courtyards between rehearsal rooms and stack the containers aroundcourtyards.
Arrangement of buildings Auditoriums are closer to shore that make visitors to enjoy the ocean view while they moving. Parks are near the city for the citizens to approach easily. Visitors can see the processes of preparing performances on the park. Main halls are located around the parks: the halls are consist of three. The cores of building are in the vicinity of courtyards: the cores offer functions that performance halls need. A container attached on a main auditorium is a museum which exhibits all performances they had. Spaces on the small auditoriums are for the storage of the containers: they are placed in various ways.

Containers are useful architectural material to accommodate various needs. Each container can be composed into diverse shapes of space according to different events, and the composition of the containers creates a dividing layer between the background and open space. If you look from urban-scale, the Opera House itself is a canvas and the containers become instrument of architectural expression to complete the project. The view of the Opera House from the city will not be fixed but will vary according to given situations and events: this flexibility itself will be the new landmark. Jayeon Kim

The size of container module is the key factor in organizing the space in this Opera House. Common containers are 40ft or 20ft long and the dimensions of each are 2.4m x 12m x 2.6m and 2.4m x 6m x 2.6m. One 40ft container is adequate for a small studio. Since the long shape of containers can restrict efficient utilization of necessary space, combinations of container modules can create suitable space to accommodate certain programs with large space requirement.

PROGRAMS
Auditorium: This opera house has six auditoriums so that it allows actors and workers to practice their performances and to build stages. One of them is a rehearsal stage which is as big as real stage, therefore actors can practice their performances with same situation as a real one. Because the mass of auditorium has transparent faces, audience can enjoy the view of the sea and the whole city.
Division of Circulation: Each floor is divided into different purpose: the first floor is for performers and the second floor is for visitors. Courtyards from everywhere make visual communication and relationship through the window. A Circulation of the building is connected with each other through the cores, and those cores assume a role of undergirding main function of the Opera House when the containers are expanded.
98
URBAN CULTURAL MATERIAL
Hotel and Commercial Program: Actors and their family can accommodate this hotel. It locates a certain place where people can take a view of beautiful ocean and the Opera Theater. Also, this can serve the guest for the events such as movie festival. The corridor on the outer side of the Opera House can be used as passage and commercial facilities.
Rooms and Containers: This project gives much more open spaces to the public compare with other opera theaters. Therefore, insufficient practicing spaces can be served by the flexible use of containers. By doing so, the opera theater can be used by more citizens. In addition, the containers can accommodate not only practicing programs but also many different kinds of programs and events.
Landscape and Open space: The landscape expresses an expanding shape to the ocean, and it seems to be a mosaic drawing which is made up different types of trees and grass.

THE NEW LAND
Renovation for the Building for Department of Architecture
Architectural Design Studio 5-2: Seoul National University fall 2010 critic: Suk Hoon, Sohn + Seung Hoy, Kim
This project was in the last semester, just before the graduation. Therefore, the task of this project was more practical, rather than experimental. The task of this project was to design the annex of the building #39-the building of the department of architecture of Seoul National University. The final goal was to draw a set of construction drawing. During this project, I motivated to think about the actual issues that occur during the construction process. Before this project, I often considered about the concept rather than actual matters, so I had chances to consider the substantive factors. And I went through the process that similar to the real construction process, so I had to resolve the problems occurred through this.
Plan, Section, and Elevation This shows the connection between building #39 and the annex. The elevation and section is drawn around the plan. As seen in the plan, the rectangular shape of building is connected by an atypical mass. The elevation shows the atypical mass connects the old building, new building and the earth. The section shows the part that the atypical mass meets the typical mass.
Contrast The two masses that make this project displays contrast.
Two Masses Each mass has totally different character. One is a typical mass which looks like an extension of the existing building. The other one is an atypical mass protuberating from the ground.
Free Plan and Standardized Plan Each mass contains contrasting programs, as the shape of the mass differs. The rectangular mass contains Professor’s rooms and critique rooms. And the space is fixed. On the other hand, The atypical mass contains relatively free programs, such as libraries, a café, and a lecture hall. A variety of events can be occurred in this mass.
Structure The structure is different too. The rectangular mass is standing firmly on the ground. It uses a typical column and girder system as a structure. However, the atypical mass is protuberating from the ground and connected to the old building. It provides a column-free space by using truss system, and looks like a floating mass. The structure is supported by the lecture hall’s wall, former building’s column and the rectangular buildings column.
Elevation The elevation differs, to give a sense of contrast. The rectangular mass is covered with repetitive curtain walls. Contrastively, the atypical mass is covered by irregular lumber, showing the contrast between to masses.

Atypical mass passes through the rectangular one, and link between land and annex and building 39. The atypical mass also link the basement floor to second floor and the forth floor of building 39 by its ramp. Each mass contains contrasting programs, as the shape of the mass differs. The rectangular mass contains Professorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rooms and critique rooms. And the space is fixed. On the other hand, The atypical mass contains relatively free programs, such as libraries, a cafĂŠ, and a lecture hall. A variety of events can be occurred in this mass.

MATERIAL: SHADOW OF LIGHT Research on Architectural Material critic: Seung-Hoy, Kim
The task of this project was to study the materials freely. Given materials were wood, transparent material, and concrete. In this large category, the selection of specific material, and the way to expreesion were free. Through this material study, I focused on the ‘light’. The material can be used as a ‘spectrum(a tool that demonstrates the light)’ to show the lights, and the light through the material can be the shadow of light.
