Architecture for me is a process of constantly examining, analysing, and reinterpreting reality. It has provided the opportunity to investigate man’s essence and to attempt to shadow his nature. I have come to understand architecture as the communication of story, an ever-present form of storytelling. It is fairytale presented in the language of tectonics. Collected and combined with different materials in the world throughout the time, it forms a visual, spatial link between human’s past, present, and future. It becomes a point in the timeline of a place and culture. I’m interested in working with materiality and exploring how man’s imagination and dreams can be translated into tectonics, which in return creates a frame that is able to shape our memory, generation after generation.

Museum of Norwegian Fairytales
The fairytale, a storytelling narrative, is one of the oldest human activities. It presents many aspects of human life, providing listeners with opportunities to see through another’s eyes with fear, anger, and love—all from a safe place. The consequence of an action in the story teaches us lessons that shape our values and our outlook on life and surroundings. The Museum of Norwegian Fairytales creates carefully constructed scenes, highlighting the ambiance of fairytales by scripting materials and spatiality as scenography does. The architecture is carved into the rocky hill of Hovedøya and gradually reveals itself on the landscape, while visitors progress from a dark and cave-like entrance toward the lighter end of the museum facing the sea. The programmes are introduced in a linear sequential line and are experienced as a storyline, where the progression has some unexpected value along the way—much like a good plot. It creates storytelling by framing a series of space which highlights the ambiance of the fairytales, where the change of scene and occurrence has some unanticipated quality. Using the excavated stones from the site is a gesture to the surrounding nature and blends the construction into the natural landscape. I wanted to design a museum as a fairytale that is presented in the language of tectonics, and I had hoped that this experience would lead me to gain a clear architectural language. After all, no matter how they are being told or manipulated, fairytales are, fantasies which exists in one’s imagination. Each one of us has a different version of them. but, in some way, this fairytale museum could stage everyone’s imagination. It should take them to the nostalgia of a cool summer night, listening to stories of trolls and huldra, and wondering where their own personal adventures will lead.

The project takes places in a site-specific approach. Situated at a cliff on one of Oslo Fjord’s islands led me to discuss how architecture should react to the sensitive ecotone around it. I choose to blend the outer envelope with the existing landscape by using site-guided material; still, I aimed to establish strong contrast by highlighting edges where the building meets the natural rocky surface. The construction that projects out of the cliff and ends toward the sea is a manmade realm, and I believe that in many ways it mimics what fairytale is to us.

The excavation for this museum should be conducted in two directions: drilling through and making a tunnel from the side of the planned forest, and a ‘closed pit construction’ approach from the opposite side where there is a small existing path. The intention for drilling from one side is to create a cave-like room, which can be only made by subtracting from the existing rock surface. The thin strip of Diabas rock formation will also be drilled through, which establishes a second entrance to the museum.

Courtyard housing in Haderselv
The project explored housing type as courtyard in mega structure form built by using bricks and concrete, which presents raw tactility. The site was situated in a city Haderselv, more specifically behind a newly planned cinema, where there are no clear boundaries or function but a parking lot space. Therefore the layout of the design aim to define the pedestrian street by planning a big courtyard housing including parking lot. Perforated brick walls were intended to loosen up the rigidity of the parking lot, and the brick facade of housings to give identity and bring the atmosphere of a village in a place which is rather emotionally deserted.

Ørre Nature School
The programme of the semester is to suggest alternative residential or social building in the villages in the central to west part of Jutland, by using the vernacular building type called ‘Longhouse’. A ‘Longhouse’, as we call it, is a building typology characterized with longitudinal repeatition of a pitched roof structure, ‘bay’ and with the limit from 8 to 10m on width. This type of structure had emerged in the viking age, adopting weather conditions by having small or no openings except for the entrance and using local building materials, such as brick and clay. Embracing but challenging this building typology, I designed a nature school building in the forest area of Ørre. The residential buildng of the school was planned to accommodate sleeping for families and teachers, detached by the other building with open space for education and social events. The windows of the sleeping building can be folded open and create an extended roof with open deck, to bring the sun light in during the summer. In order to place the structure in the forest area with damp and soft ground, screw pile foundation is planned to keep the wooden structure from rottening.

Pavilion in the Vennelyst park
Understanding and reinterpreting the traditional constuction being a principle of the studio tectonic and culture, workshops such as timber construction and thatching workshop had taken place during the semester. The wooden pavilion in the Vennelyst park was designed as a threeday mission in the studio in relation to long-house concept which was the theme of previous semester, and it is commissioned in connection with the cultural event, the European Capital of culture in 2017. As a part of construction team, I was engaged with the project from sketching to dismantling. The construction was participated with craftsmanship work under the guidance of external adviser Nik Hyllestad.

Work approach During my practice experience for three years before the master’s study, I worked within a small integrated design team which covers the whole range of process and types of building. We strived to thoroughly explore the typology by observing the given context during the conceptual stage, followed by the painstaking procedure of realization of the atmosphere we sensed in the building through detailing and monitoring during the construction. Whichever stage projects are at, I much appreciate the open, anlaytic, and highly subjective gesture that architecture brings to the given social and historic environment. Throughout the time I was studying in Aarhus, I had a chance to explore what I most value about this profession, and I came to realize that I appreciate working with architecture that generates an atmosphere which is created by detailing with the knowledge of materials, and craftmanship in construction. The feeling which we call ‘atmosphere’ might be a highly subjecive word, but it can be embraced as a certain pragmatic sensibility and contextual cohesion which we can only observe when we phyiscally experience the architecture. And I would eager to further explore my future professional experience within that horizon.

The discussion of this project was to design a harmonizing plan to the surrounding mountainous area by dividing the building mass according to the size of each required programmes and create outdoor space in-between which is connected to rooftop and terraces, eventually creating the whole flow of the inside and outside without blocking. The plan added more dynamics by following the angle of the slope. The required programs were seminar rooms, employee residents, gym, auditorium and general common amenity rooms. The team analyzed the required programmes and made layouts of 7.5m width plans to put on the site horizontally. After the analysis and basic planning, we developed the plan with study models to decide the best module which will harmonize on its own and with surroundings. The plan of the main building placement, as well as the connection between the roads and the outdoor deck spaces, were improved by following the model making process. The plan and the section on the last page of the project show the lower two blocks, A and B, which were the first part construction to be arranged.

Urban agriculture &community centre
I was took the project over during the design development stage and proceeded construction, as well as working on the overall masterplan of the village which the agriculture community centre was included.

The project initiated by the municipality of Jongno in Seoul, as a part of rejuvenating project in attempt to strengthen the self sustainable urban agriculture community. During the urban development in 70s and 80s of Seoul, there was mere appreciation on shared space in a community or even reasonably accessible width of pedestrian road as it is considered nowadays. The strategies that were previously taken which I recommenced as a project manager took an attempt to utilize flat roof floors. The structure accommodates a bank for seeds and small crops to distribute to the community. Parallel to this rooftop construction, I was assigned to make a renovation plan for this 3 stories building to accommodate a library of farming tools, community centre for locals and place for agricultural workshop. The project is essentially intended to support urban agriculture by enabling the easy access of installation as prefabrication. Therefore, it is designed as a ‘product’, and the highlighted aspect of which is light weighted, prefabrication, and branded. The structure is composed of 30 pieces of steel columns and bolts, and designed to be ‘flat packed’ for easy delivery, and plywood boxes used in packaging designed to be able to reuse for pots. A shading system was introduced to reduce direct sunlight during summer, and purple led lighting was discussed for the enhanced production.
