multi-cultural center for local communities
li-b[ve]-rary ; public library as a green livingroom
PROJECT THESIS The public sapce needs the presence of public life. The new public space is a place of interaction, a node and an icon that will set new grounds and re-define urbanity in the future of this city. In addition, the public space is a community space within the city that enhances an urban lifestyle and established potential new relationships for the surrounding predestrian precinct. Libraries are no longer a place simply to lend books. As public facilities, they have expanded their function as multi-cultural centers for local people, providing cultural content, educational services, and leisure space. Various services available in local libraries offer a good platform for local residents to better know one another; libraries as public facilities can satisfy cultural desire of users, providing meeting places for them and can be utilized for activities of local communities.
LIBRARY AS AN OPPORTUNITY Social hub - Extensive role in the multi-media, multi-cultural future - The library as a urban hub for information, skills and stories - Delivering social interaction as part of lifelong learning and well-being - Cooperation partnerships with infrastructure and other organisations Green urban platform - Creating a community livingroom - Supports communities' activities - Green bands expansion_ green connectivity

New library is a place of public space and interaction node of social hub. It take charged the role of civic landdmark, attractor, cultural center and community livingroom. To be a social hub, the library should consider about relationship to the city and its own system of categorization. it could be a organizing principle of new library.

A Room and a Garden AN ADDITION TO LOUIS KAHN'S FDR MEMORIAL
PROJECT DESCRIPTION The studio program will involve the design of the FDR Four Freedoms Study and Visitors’ Center, sited to the north of Louis Kahn’s Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial, designed in 1973‑4 but only constructed in 2012. Kahn stated that the FDR Memorial was “a room and a garden… the garden is a gathering of nature and the room is the beginning of architecture.” The new Center and its associated landscape will shape the entry sequence to the FDR Memorial and the transition from Cornell University’s New York City campus, to be constructed directly to the north. The new Center will house a research center focusing on FDR’s “four freedoms,” visitor center functions for Kahn’s FDR Memorial, and a landscape-garden. This is a real project, which will be designed and built in the next several years, and for which the clients are seeking inspired conceptions. Therefore each student will be encouraged to develop a different scheme, so that the studio explores as many possible ways of siting and shaping the new Center.
PEDAGOGICAL METHOD “The space induces the project. If you have a space, something happens, the program then starts. It does not start before you make the space.” Louis I. Kahn’s insight into the relationship between construction and program, and the essential part played by space in their realization, is perhaps unique in recent architectural practice and thinking. It is surprising that this proposition of Kahn’s has not been more widely noticed and discussed in the profession or in schools of architecture, for it implies a reversal of the usual design process, wherein the program is written and the construction materials selected before the spaces are conceived. Kahn proposes the opposite—that one should begin with an idea about space, as a place of experience, and that this spatial conception then gives direction and meaning to the development of program—the poetics of action, and construction—the poetics of construction. “You plan a library as though no library had ever existed”—Kahn insisted that each architect/student of architecture could realize her or his potential only to the extent that they interpreted each project as a new beginning.

46 A Room and a Garden Project 1 - CUBE: Room(s) Unfolding the four Freedoms This first project explicitly or implicitly engage as its program the spatial and experiential embodiment of Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s “Four Freedoms”. Freedom of speech and expression Freedom of religion and worship Freedom from want Freedom from fear It is to construct a spatial itinerary, an architectural promenade that moves from space to space, and of course the movement itself is one of the spaces. The concepts of the Four Freedoms as my understand them spatially should be defined by this journey, this spatial construct. The result is a relationship between space and ritual—it is about qualities, not quantities; scale, not measurement; experience, not efficiency. The Four Freedoms are not programmatic requirements in the usual sense, but are intended as provocations—to provoke responses, in the form of habitable spatial designs.

LIFE AND DEATH, ALL ABOUT CYCLES A repeated process between life and death is the most basic connection of people as well as the only resource to go back to nature. There are something that can change from people’s life trace with no natural, wasteful and a limited condition to go back to being a proper nature through the interpretation of death that is irretrievable and the suggestion about planning of charnel house as complex cultural park with harmony between life and death. It can change people’s mind from the established facilities of cherish the memory of a deceased person that have negative knowledge to the processing facilities that are not only just memory to people but also complex cultural function.
INTERPRETATION OF DEATH Proposal of charnel house as interpretation of not exchangeable death and complex cultural facility that balance life and death, and as new city infrastructure. The change and development of funeral culture based on cremation cause the problem that supply cannot meet Demand. To solve this problem, expansion of cremation and charnel facilities is demanded. However, because of the opposition of unpleasant facilities and NIMBI syndrome, the supply is not being accomplished. Therefore, new cognition of funeral facility and new architecture is needed. For new cognition of funeral facility, make an attempt on contemplation of historical and cultural based death. Also, try new interpretation of death through the consideration of composition, meaning and characteristic of Jong-myo, and propose charnel house as complex cultural facility with function of new city infrastructure. In addition, through the change by the needs of times, switch the opposition of multi-layered urban space to the place and aura of the city. Then, propose architectural solution which emphasizes the sense of place and the way it can make balance with circumstances.

The proposal of city-based urban crematorium can be seen a somewhat radical and premature when the people’s awareness of new funeral culture formation did not change. The memorial of death and cultural facilities in the city’s park is not olny new trying of inserting death into our daily life, and also trying to make a new space of life as a city infrastructure.

The different attitude of treating the death between the west and the east is from different culture. However, it needs a change of perception not only because of different cultural background of explosion of grief expressed over Funeral culture in Korea besides the western culture, but also because of practical problems and limitations in our current society.

Testbed complex perspective view
DESIGN OUTLINE Daegu, in the Republic of Korea, has always been one of the three major cities in Korea, but for most citizens living outside of Daegu it is remembered by representations in old movies. However, new industries and business opportunities have been created. Some big issues standing in the way of embracing these opportunities are that Daegu as an urban institution has not always responded positively to change and inland cities are generally more conservative in response to social progress. China is now a huge market, and steps must be taken to capitalize on this burgeoning economy. The west coast city of Incheon has taken steps toward creating a sustainable city plan in order to vitalize growth. Daegu is being outpaced by more adaptable cities. There are 2.5 million residents in the Daegu Metropolitan Area, and Daegu remains a central feature of the Yeungnam region, but without a specific vision or goals Daegu is doomed to remain in the past and continue to fade in the future. We hope to create a new vision and plan for Daegu that can be implemented within the next 10 years. The purpose of this proposal is to bring together the best minds to present detailed plans that will specifically lay out a dynamic and sustainable future for Daegu’s city structure. There needs to be an emphasis on businesses that will carry Daegu through to the next century. There is particular interest in the CT(Culture Technology) and IT(Information Technology) industrial cluster integrating with Daegu’s rich cultural resources in order to foster new growth engines such as cultural industries, gaming, mobile content and etc. Next generation industrial clusters that consider Daegu’s unique culture and can serve as growth engines for the new city of Daegu will be deemed suitable for the competition.

Round Valley
Issue : What does make the site regeneration?
The round-valley is a territory where does not have what kind of scale.
Socialcultural propensity : conservatism or exclusive and propensity to consume
It becomes abundantly clear-up by background, program, event, and interest in compliance with information. Therefore the round-valley experiences the new thing and always confronts to what kind of variation.

The such aspects always change and develops immediately the aspect which they are visible. The outside of the construction which supports the roundvalley does the duty which is limited and important to indise. We are getting is not object but external reality. It is the continuation which in between forms creates. and the medium is the round-valley. Therefore, the round-valley is the dynamic one vector, and it keeps the energy of the depending on.

98 The Inclination of Urban SITE & THEMA
Nodal mapping Programmatic mapping of existing surroundings were conducted as a source of exploration in the observation of possible voronoi patterns. Existing activity nodes(old buildings) were identified and fed into voronoi script to generate overlays of voronoi pattern based on each activity nodes. The abstract grid were then superimposed to form a denser grid, in an attempt to explore the possibilities of how and urban informed voronoi map could inform architecture and the site.
Site area view
Mutual network Needless to say, voronoi grid pattern contribute to making mutual network as a new balanced site. networking nodes rearrange biased use of site and become an anchor point of new balanced site.

+ Silhouette: The history of the city essentially has been developed with the presence of individuals. History and the pesent is a starting point for any project, and alive information to determine to develop architectural methods. It also can be a background of future to discover and develop the current.
100 The Inclination of Urban STRATEGY & PROCESS
Testbed & Round valley We suggest three testbed in order to see the essence of the construction prior to symbol through the height of the buildings and to put the lost value of our contemporary life in. The image of the negativeness is replaced with positive image with sybol of emptiness. Round valley is suggested as a symbol of the emptiness not to backfill the huge ground but to empty out. It also means not only the windows to observe this new symbol but also the gateway that we can open, come in and take part in. Additionally, it furnishes totally different directivity of sight toward not a massive building above any other existing buildings, but the remained lower part. The emptiness replaces 'negative image of Daegu' realizing blurry boundary. A new symbol is put into a three testbed and it becomes a place of community with people who are with this new symbol and image of Daegu. It also a significant meaning as a representative structure in Daegu which has totally different flavor and value.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION Masi 111+11 Exhibition represented 1 village, 11 architects, and 111 houses of Kyungpook National University staff housing project. This project is largest scale rural housing development of living in suburbs This project started in april 2002 through organizing a union and adopted Master Architect Design way. MA team set up guide line and 6 basic prototype first, then 11 participated architects developed that prototypes. The site 'Masi-ri' divided by 11 sector and 11 selected architects designed 10~11 houses each. This exhibition designed as an architecture exhibition not only for participated architects and clients who KNU staffs but also general visitors who showed interest about housing project. Existing gallery area was too old and bad-handled condition to hold exhibition at the first time when I visited that place. So, I re-organized the space and re-design to hold the exhibition. Every single product for the exhibition, I had to design, research and contact them who can help it or realize the idea. Team working experience and real-project were two best challege and benefit.
