Performative Space : Echoes In Pompeii The Cooper Union, New York, NY, Summer 2016 M.Arch II Architecture Thesis Critic Diana Agrest Michael Young
In October 1971, about 1,800 years after the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius, the English rock band Pink Floyd played their song “Echoes” in the amphitheater of Pompeii. Without any audience, the only thing filling the voided space of this ruined city were the “Echoes” of the band. This thesis explores how this sound was generated, amplified, exploded, and finally remained as echoes in Pompeii. In addition to this musical experiment, the role of architecture in this musical piece was examined to find a way to construct a design proposal for Performative space.

The creation of echoes in the amphitheater was analyzed through a sound particle ray study. Sound spread through vibration of the air with speed of 343.2m/sec. (Dry air at 20 °C). But after the sound spreads, reflected sound particles remain in the boundary of the space and create echoes. By tracing and overlaying these particles, I was able to visualize how the sound was captured and ultimately became echoes. A plan, section, and axonometric drawing of amphitheater, as well as an audio-visual study, was performed to clearly understand what happened when the band began to perform.
Design Process
My project culminated with an attempt to draw echoes in Pompeii. With the point, vector, and surface data from the analysis, the amphitheater of Pompeii was transformed into a Performative space. The architectural drawing of this new amphitheater and the structural fabric represent the directional amplification, spreading and echoes of the sound created by Pink Floyd. As a final proposal, form generated by the echoes of this space was examined. An experience through the linear space generated by this 23-minute musical piece ultimately became Performative Space : Echoes in Pompeii.

Paris. The city of Love. I had chance to study at Paris for a year as an exchange student. The site of this project was Gare Rungis which was closed years ago. It became like a wall to the city. The program given was a dormitory for students. So I came up with the idea to implant the clones of intimacy to the wall. As clones attack the wall it fluctuates the wall and the design was done.

The Sound Of The City : Manhattan The Cooper Union, New York, NY, Fall 2015 M. Arch II Design Studio :Urban Research Critic Pablo Lorenzo-Eiroa The sound is everywhere. However, because of its intangibility, the importance of sound has often been overlooked by architects. Consequently, the sound of the city has not been designed. Instead, it became purely accidental, and until now impossible to control. Thanks to advanced computation simulation and parametric technology, architects are now able to render intangible material visible. By this new means of understanding, this project culminates to transform the space through sound, architecture and city.

Gyeongsang National University Hospital Chang-Jo Architects, Seoul, Korea
Competition Winner, Changwon, Korea, 2012 - 2015 Contribute to Hardware Drawings, In-patient ward Planning, 3d modeling Design Principle Kang Woo Lee
This project is a competition winner for Gyeong-Sang University Hospital. The project was teamed up with almost 30 people from 3 different companies. I participated from the beginning of this project, from the start of competition and to the final construction document phase. As an assistant manager, I was in charge of all the doors and hardware. This was a large hospital. There was total 3,087 doors I named. So I came up with the idea to name this project as The Doors. A tribute to Jim Morrison.

Hospital design is not just a aesthetic work, but also a consideration of serious system inside the hospital. Hours and Hours of meeting with doctors, tremendous amount of technical drawings and endless paper works were required.

The concept of Korean Embassy in Cambodia originated from the traditional horizontal zoning of Korea. By connecting and interlocking the landscape between two buildings, the identity of Korean garden and architecture became the design proposal.

This project was done by only 5 person. So as an assistant manager, I had chance to participate deeply into the project including zoning, plan drawings and facade design.

Innovative design through traditional value was the concept of this project. In this sense we kept tradition, sustainability and security as the design principle. Facade design was originated from the Korean traditional fabric pattern and after schematic design, I mainly worked for facade study. The facade was first designed as double skin, but it has removed after several modifications.

Maximum Flexibility was the key design principle for this project. Each of the Exhibition spaces are designed to be extended and linked horizontally and vertically. The design of the wall in main gallery was planned as movable, thus creating different variety of spaces for diverse exhibitions. The historical heritage of the site was also considered seriously. In this sense, the Museum was divided into three parallel linear zones. These spatial bars transition from the East (the old neighborhood) to the West (the Palace)-each zone becoming wider as it approaches the Palace. The two outside zones are conceived as “Solid” masses and the middle zone is the transparent “Urban Void” that supports an outdoor sculpture civic plaza and the large Exhibition Hall.
