位于首尔郊区的Geumkok-dong办公室原本是两座紧挨着的独立住房。客户最初希望该办公室是一个全新的建筑。然而,我们事务所坚信,寻求独特的并置和新旧交替可能成为这个项目的基本特征,在这里,两个最对立的主题自然地共存。随着我们对这个项目的核心信念得到巩固,我们开始通过叠加现有区域的各个部分,对不同时间的空间进行重新诠释。

Geumkok-dong office, located on the outskirts of Seoul was originally a two individual housing situated closely to one another. The client initially wished the office to be an entirely new building. However, our firm strongly believed that seeking for the unique juxtaposition and the intersection of old and new may become the fundamental identity of this project where the two most opposing theme naturally coexists. As our core belief towards the project was solidified, we began by reinterpreting on spaces of different time via superimposing various parts of the existing region.

客户建议将展览空间作为新项目的一部分,因为周围的环境是快速发展地区的一部分。由于这个地方经历了从住房到幼儿园的众多不同项目,所有的身份都被嵌入到空间和结构中。为了满足新项目的需求,我们选择拆除部分现有结构,以容纳一个更灵活的空间功能。我们决定暴露现有的结构和它随着时间的推移所储存的故事的痕迹。白色的石膏板被选来隐藏里面的机械管道,与混凝土块形成了鲜明的对比。

The client suggested to include exhibition spaces as part of a new program as the surrounding environment was part of rapidly developing area. As the place has gone through numerous different programs from housing to kindergarten, all the identities were embedded within the space and the structure. In order to meet the demand of the new program, we chose part of the existing structures to be removed to house a more flexible function of space. We decided to expose existing structures and the traces of stories it has stored over time. White gypsum board which was selected to hide the mechanical pipes inside dramatically contrasts with the concrete mass.

膨胀的金属屏幕允许有控制的日光渗透到前提下,同时保持稳定的通风。屏风是办公室的标志性建筑,它首先将各个体块结合成一个整体。尽管通过使用屏幕实现了视觉上的统一,但在创造各种开口的过程中,大胆的运动使原本存在的东西更好地告知它的存在。我们希望屏幕成为核心机制的一部分,让它周围的自然环境充斥室内。一个几乎是半透明的过滤器;屏幕似乎是一个完美的材料,通过从根本上成为一个过渡性的支点,在新旧之间引起独特的对话。

The expanded metal screen allows controlled daylight penetration to the premise yet keeping consistent ventilation. The screen which is a monumental identity to the office first unites the individual mass together as a whole entity. Despite the unified visual by using the screen, bold movement in creating various openings allowed what has been there originally to better inform its existence. We wanted the screen to be part of the core mechanism in flooding the interiors with nature that it is surrounded by. An almost translucent filter; the screen seemed to be the perfect material in raising a unique dialogue between the old and the new by fundamentally becoming a transitional pivot..
