WORK EXPERIENCE
JENNIFER NAM SEUNG WON
I have been engaged in various projects in and outside the Netherlands throughout my international academic and professional experiences. My interests lie on housing and mixuse projects in an urban context. So far I have accumulated extensive knowledge in concept development, and visualizations, along with experience in conducting definitive design studies regarding materializations of facade and interior. Effective communication, attention to detail, adaptability to changes and positive attitude as a team player remain as my core strength. As a growing architect, I am eager to stretch out my role out to the technical and construction phases of architectural project over time.

New urban lifestyle in a transformative region
KAAN Architecten (03/19 - 08/19)
The SPOT project originates from the redevelopment of Hogehilweg in Amsterdam-Zuidoost. The area, currently occupied by office blocks from the 80s, will be transformed into a cosmopolitan part of the city over the next few years. From the beginning, different atmospheres are being established simultaneously, creating both an intimate inner-city environment and an expanding metropolis, the village and the city in one. The vision, with an underlying strategy of density, is to create a space with urban dy-

namics, bringing comfort and achieving an alluring stratification. With as strong emphasis on residential atmosphere aside offices and commercial spaces, the programme enables considerable density, resulting in a green inner-city environment. Varying towers and lower building blocks, SPOT introduces a layer between the human scale, the buildings, and the wider environment. The transformation happening in the area follows the emerging practices in the city.

Creating ensemble towards the future
KAAN Architecten (01/20 - 03/20)
The development of the Newday office is situated in the Schinkelkwartier as part of the Amsterdam-Zuidas corridor area. It is an interesting location along the ring road as well as along the east-west access route that is included in the urban plan, with both metropolican and local qualities. The overall urban vision is to transform the Schinkelkwartier from an isolated periphery work areas to a highly urban, innovative, diverse and sustainable work and residential area. The location close to the Schiphol

While planning the lot of the client Stadium Capital, the redevelopment will likely lead the way for the total renovation of the area. Hence the design incoporates the architectural potentials of the surrounding plots and their phasing, such as the ambition to build the facilities of the plinth within two years.

Completing the ring
KAAN Architecten (07/20 - 08/20)
The project defines the Arenakwartier as spatial and functional ensemble by creating a testing framework with the definition of the characteristic of Kavel 15 and 16 that will then become the pilot elements for the qualification of the area. A particular attention is given to the distinction between inner and outer ring around the Johan Cruijff Arena giving an indication for the functional layout of the public space. By determining the volumes of Kavel 15 and 16 in relation to the ensemble is also possible to

define a new urban front on the north side of JC Arena. The architectural framework is described to define the relation of the building parts at a different level of detail, ruling the construction height, roof edges and articulation of the facades. After the urban hub is established, the plinth in the future is envisioned as a complete ring with consistent facade and a connected public roof garden that provides a new panoramic perspective for the visitors.

Wholesale Conversion of Industrial Building
Ronald Lu & Partners (09/16 - 06/17)
The Kowloon Bay district is undergoing a transformation into the second central business district of Hong Kong. The site is Goldin Financial Global Square, an existing industrial building along the Sheng Yuet road. The location near the Kwun Tong Bypass and Kowloon Bay metro station makes it highly accessible. What was once a monolithic inward-looking concrete block is converted into a dynamic glass box

with mixed use programs. To integrate and adapt to the change in use from retail, carpark to office, the building consists of three facade systems at work: double story glass wall shopfront with canopy, curtain wall with mullions and vertical outline of the columns. The interior is upgraded with bright and light materials, and the inner courtyard is transformed into an intimate shared space for the office users.

Towards empowerment of the informal sector
TU Delft MSc4 Global Housing Studio (09/18-11/19)
Nalasopara East, a representative case of chaotic urban fabric in Mumbai, India, is comprised of densely packed mid-rise chawl developments which neglect the complex and unorganized network of informal economic activities of the low-income residents for the benefit of the private developers. This affordable housing project aims to embrace the existing vibrancy of Nalasopara East, yet provide an alternative redevelopment solution to the remaining pockets of ground-storey baithi chawls that can not only increase density but also provide quality by creating a flexible live-work typology dedi-

cated to different groups of the informal sector predominant in Mumbai. Unlike the conventional affordable housing process, a controlled participation will be incorporated to value the residents’ communal decisions as well as an efficient construction of low-cost and sustainable GFRG material will be explored. This pilot micro-scale redevelopment hopes to contribute to the making of the community-generating neighborhoods throughout the course of time where low-income locals and informal workers can both economically and socially benefit together.

Redefining orders
TU Delft MSc1 Public Building
The Kingdom of Armenia was the first state to adopt Christanity as its office religion in the 4th century. As one of the most ancient Christian communities, 94.8% of Armenian population is comprised of Christians.
Apostolic Nunciature of the Holy See
The objective of the studio was to design an apostolic nunciature of the holysee--a Catholic building--in the center of Armenia’s capital, Yerevan. This was a controversial attempt in a site which is in the center of the city where all the public attention could be drawn to (the 5.2%

abandoned plot in between Cascade Complex and Russian Monument). My first approach to the project was to understand the existing order in the city, where there is a clear line of monuments transitioning from one to the other. By referencing the elements I sought for integration: designing an experiential public space which stands as a new identity in the city of Yerevan, which could allow the Catholic religion to remain well-communicated, accepted and respected.

Urban Islands
HKU BA(AS)4 Wall Housing
Located in downtown Singapore, the site is a cluster of residual plots of land created by the East Coast Parkway flyover crossing Marina Bay. With city and waterfront on both sides, these urban islands are to be inserted with new habitable structures fully integrated with the existing infrastructure and in dialogue with the flow of traffic. The area of focus in my designated site was the centermost part of the overall site area, which consists of a triangular plot created by three overlapping roads. This
Urban Housing Marina Bay, Singapore
part of the site was fascinating for its energy generated by the movement on the roads on different heights, yet could improve accessibility and connectivity on the ground level. To accenuate the site and embrace the highway, the design concept was to form two slabs outlining the road and make connections with crossing bridges elevated above the traffic. Programmatically there are living and working which start from the walls then gradually blend in the middle as an extended spatial experience.

Common ground for the subdivided community
HKU BA(AS)3 Architectural Urbanism
The twelve mid-rise tenement buildings in To Kwa Wan, Kowloon have been built in the 1970s to mitigate housing shortage by the Hong Kong government. Due to the rise of the rental price from new housing in the periphery, the To Kwa Wan has experienced a drastic polarization of wealth. Currently the buildings are occupied by numerous low-income locals or ethnic minorities who incrementally created informal settlements and subdivided units for a temporary stay.

In this segregated and hostile environment, my aim was to instigate a sense of community and natural interaction to the area with minimum intervention of the original structure. Using the existing columns and staircases as design guidelines, I have created a diverse public program typologies which are inserted into the framework. The ground floor is ultimately envisioned as the common urban ground open and walkable for all the inhabitants and visitors.
