Serene Haven

Informed by the TouchDesigner study, the intricate silhouette of the roof employs precision and attention to detail throughout the design process. After gathering data through a forecasting machine’s sophisticated capabilities, the information is adeptly translated into visually captivating content.

Integrating the acquired data into the TouchDesigner’s line points seamlessly orchestrates a dynamic display of diverse lines within a video format. The synthesis of these videos into a cohesive whole is accomplished with finesse through TouchDesigner’s versatile functionalities.

Conceptual Personal Abstract N/A

The project is based on the idea of creating a system generating a mass by having two axis or parameters determine the complexity of the space. One axis factors in how many levels the model will have and the other one will determine its complexity. To start with, I decided to have 2 to 3 shapes as visual assets, so that I can generate various forms. It's almost like a musical variation.

[Project Scheme]

Using the given simple shapes, I start with a floor plan. Overlap, Intersections, Diagnoal Lines are used to generate a mass. I concentrate on putting mass together intuitively so that holds certain degree of randomness.

Generative Space

Architecture Driven by Generated Structures

Generated Space can be formed as a prototype of a building. And later would be possible to utilize a coding to randomly generate a structure with given assets.

Below is a proposal elevation plan of a building using the generated mass. Randomly given slope can used as an entrance while the upper level of the building can be used as an observatory area.

The furnitures were hand made with plywood and stained and sanded.

The space was designed in two area with a certain level of contrast. Kitchen area with stucco ceiling and wooden wall is well mirrored with the hall area with wood ceiling and stucco wall unit. Overall mood was directed to to be very minimal and gentle.

Sketch of Donald Judd, Which was a big inspiration of the overall Interior Mood and the main table's design. In the actual design I added more weight to it for a larger presence.

May 2021 Architecture and Interior mmoo Creative Arch Cafe Building Jeonju, S. Korea

Inspired by Korean Traditional Architectural Form, I designed the building to contain some of the key visual of the element such as the material usage and color usage. Also a slight hint of Korean architecture technique.

"Nugak"

Nugak buildings are multistoried structure without walls usually used for nobels dinning out or taking a tea while enjoying the landscape outdoor. The project was inspired by such architectural form.

Interior Concept

The interior was designed with big consideration of the site where it's near by the area there it's well known for Korean Traditional Village with hanok buildings(Traditionally built Korean Architecture.) The project goal was to design every aspect of the space to have a nuance of Korea in a very sophisticated matter.

Once a familiar sight across the country, traditional Korean houses, called hanoks, have been steadily disappearing since the 1990s.

Despite government efforts to preserve them, these single-story courtyard homes have been replaced by modern housing, or destroyed to make way for large commercial developments and infrastructure. But just as K-pop grew from Korea's musical past to express newfound wealth and national identity, 'K-architecture' is now offering a contemporary take on traditional living.

The Project is to design a cross-over architectural project using a old building in the city of Seoul. the zen mood of the original builing was a big momentum to bring in minimal rhythm in to the building as an addendum. the space was planned to used as a gallery since the area is a gallery village.

Site Anaysis :

83 Yulgok-ro 3-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea

The Site is a tourist site near presidential resident and old palace of Chosun Dynasty. The area is known for buildings with traditionally aesthetics.

Seoul, S. Korea

Project Overview

Compare to other nations, Koreans did not give much honor to the veterans. And there is big movement insisting the community should support the veterans. The project is to fulfill the need and support the veterans.

Facility Overview

Residence

By providing residences to the veterans, they no longer need to worry about their living space.

Clinic

Both mental health and physical treatment areas are provided in one building.

Cafe

In this space, not just seniors but also neighbors, doctors, and nurses can take a break and communicate.

Terrace

For greater exposure to sunlight, sufficient terrace space was designated to the buliding.

Veteran House Project

The main concern was to keep the space not very exclusive, so that there is more exposure to people for the veterans.

Celebration

Case Study and Research

Analyzing these five spaces, I've learned that even though the primary users are seniors, focusing on multigenerational spaces is important because sometimes other generations come to a space, and ifs important to improve the relationships between each generation. One of the important things is that all researchers are working very well with natural resources. Natural light improves mental health and is very good at energy efficiency. Also, adding a garden and terrace at the center of the project not only provides some resting spaces for the users but also works well with ventilation.

"Inter-"

The prefix inter means between and among. When the Korean war broke out, lots of other nations came to Korea to help South and North Korea. Still, now, there are lots of veteran descendants living in Korea. this project's purpose is to find the integrated spot between all the nations, generations, and cultures.

Concept Mapping

The strength of the nation in South Korea is hard work from veterans. Nowadays they became old and homeless or get a basic receipt from the government. Koreans said they are admiring veterans, however, the government and young generation actually do not think specifically about veterans' life. Therefore, bring honor to them, make their life no more worries until they die. This project gets in touch with veterans who live in Korea and give comfortable space and treatment to their remaining lives.

Prototyping

• There are multiple options for choosing the residence type.

• Furniture arrangement is one of the important things to consider when designing the space.

• Knowing how specific pieces of furniture are used in each space.

(e.g patient's room : they need guardians chair)

• Knowing about the general space clearance of each space.

To follow the Prefix 'inter-' refers to creating the dynamic lines connecting the floor plan, furniture and the ceiling design. Using green and blue colors gives some points to the space and muted colors will work to neutralize the strong colors. Tactile and sensory components will be emphasized in the design to aid and promote navigation across the room. The materials will combine natural and artificial things such as wood, fabric, stone, and velvet give to some positive mood to the users. Using some organic shapes in all the space gives users who could not go out to get the same feeling like an outside. For the lighting part, installing curtain walls and windows at the part of each floor works well with natural lights and giving a warm mood.
