HOUSE AS GALLERY Advised by Prof. HyunCheol Kim of Seoul National University Architectural Design Studio 1, 2004 1st Semester, master’s course In today’s divergent urban environment borders between public and private space are shifting and merging. As a result, a house in the city is no longer solely a house: It is mixed with other programs. In this project, new ways of combining private spaces of a house with other public spaces, in this case a gallery, is investigated.

In order to establish mutual independence and close relationship, circulation was considered the main subject of interest. To induce proper circulation with forms of walls, lights and space, one of Le Corbusier’s spatial technique of ‘Les 4 Compositions’ is applied.

STRATEGY OF TECTONICS Interlocked walls and slabs work as structures, facades introducing lights, and objects with specific forms to attract people’s eyes to induce circulation.

Living room, equipped with a fire place and wide windows to get huge amount of light, works as a center for family unity.

For this, circulations from each room are connected at living room, while visual contact with each other are also generated.

8

Kitchen is related to living room with stairs, while visually connected to garage.

This is to emphasize that garage is not just a storage for a car but a creative space to enjoy father’s hobby, just as what a kitchen and cooking is to mother.

Bamboo is located at the center of this house.

Bamboo can be seen from each private and hobby room so that each family member shares a certain imagery of this house in real time.

PROJECT 5 PARKING COMPLEX : TRANSPORTATION + RECREATION Advised by Prof. Jin Kyoon Kim of Seoul National University Architectural Design 3, 2003 1st Semester, undergraduate course Due to the gradual expansion of Seoul, there are numerous park and ride lots along the main roads.

They remain unbuilt areas in urban environments with direct connection to main roads.

I suggested a ‘parking complex’, a recreational space for drivers and residents in neighborhood.

I selected one of the park and ride lots near Mapo subway station and designed a prototype of ‘parking complex’ The site can have direct connection to car express ways.

Connection to the existing infrastructure, selection of programs, composition of programs and spatial planning of driving space and walking space were the major issues to be solved.

PROJECT 6 DEGREE OF DEPENDANCY : RE-THINKING MOTEL ARCHITECTURE IN THE ERA OF POST-ECONOMIC CRISIS Advised by Prof. Yannis Aesopos of Columbia University Master of Science in Advanced Architectural Design Studio, 2014 Summer Semester I suggested a new type of motel architecture which can be adapted to the era of post-economic crisis. Flexibility of finance in terms of architectural business is required nowadays. In this context, I focused on the degree of dependency of motel architecture to nature and car in terms of space. In order to minimize the cost of construction, I suggested using the space of grottos which is given by nature. I also suggested using the space of cars that each unit plan will be different according to the type of cars. For example, if someone has a sedan, he will need a sound apartment unit. If someone has a SUV, he will need only kitchen and bathroom because he will enjoy sleeping in his own tent with a camping site. If someone has a camping bus, he will need only parking lots equipped with plug-ins for water pipes and electricity. Historical essence of motel typology is the close and direct relationship of each unit plan and car. Nowadays this essence disappeared due to the emergence of high-rise motels. This project proposes a solution for motel architecture typology to adapt to the post economic crisis and to regain the essence.

We suggested a bridge which is a free-formed platform, not merely as a plate to connect two points of location. This bridge can be an atrium, and also be a sculptural object to appreciate from inside and outside of the building. We worked with various softwares such as rhino, grasshopper, ecotect, geco, revit and chameleon.

Advised by Prof. Andres Jaque of Columbia University Master of Science in Advanced Architectural Design Studio, 2004 fall Semester co-worked with Skylar Bisom-Rapp and James Quick To renovate the 432 park avenue as a micro-sublet, we researched Air-bnb, Couch-surfing and Time-share resorts as references. We suggested four types of units ; Flex-time unit, Creative-Cluster unit, Crash-pad unit and Prifessional studio unit. We also suggested four kinds of amenities which enables residents to experience authentice experience in Manhattan ; Marc Morris dance studio, Figment mini-golf, Bar 169 (dive bar) and Bill Cunningham boutique.
