“韩国国家树木园儿童森林学校 “是作为一个教育和展览空间,通过建筑和户外空间的展览,以一种有趣和简单的方式让儿童了解森林和环境的重要性。 建筑概念是基于生物亲和性设计,其中自然、生态系统和建筑共存。这个项目的第一个出发点是建筑与现有树木之间的和谐。我们保留了古老的冷杉和柏树,并在这些树周围安排建筑。因此,建筑被现有的树木所包围,布局向场地东侧的溪流开放,我们可以自然地看到美丽的风景。

“Korea National Arboretum Children’s Forest School” is used as an educational and exhibition space to inform children about the importance of forests and the environment in a fun and easy way through the building and the exhibition of outdoor spaces. The architectural concept is based on the biophilic design in which nature, ecosystem and architecture coexist. The first starting point of this project is the harmony between the building and the existing trees. We preserve the old fir and cypress trees and arrange the building around these trees. Thus, the building is surrounded by the existing trees, and the layout opens to the stream on the east side of the site where we can see the beautiful scenery naturally.

除了与上述现有的树木相协调外,建筑的主要设计理念是通过蜂窝状的模块进行空间的构成。蜜蜂作为一种特别容易受到气候变化影响的昆虫,在生态系统中的意义是特殊的。当蜜蜂消失时,植物就会因为不开花结果而灭绝,而且还会影响到地球的氧气供应和食物供应。为了传达蜜蜂在生态系统中的重要性,并让孩子们了解各种生物物种和生物多样性共存的重要性,我们选择了蜂巢式作为 “亲环境建筑设计”。六边形的蜂巢结构象征着蜜蜂在生态系统中起着重要的催化作用,同时通过各种六边形模块培养儿童的 “生态想象力”。

In addition to harmonizing with the existing trees mentioned above, the main design concept of architecture is the composition of space through honeycomb modules. The significance of the bee, as an insect particularly vulnerable to climate change, in the ecosystem is special. When the bees disappear, plants become extinct because they do not bear fruit, and it also affects the planet’s oxygen supply and food supply. In order to convey the message of the importance that bees in the ecosystem, and to inform children about the importance of the coexistence of various living species and biodiversity, we choose the honeycomb-type as “Biophilic Architecture Design”. The hexagonal honeycomb structure symbolizes bees that play an important catalyst role in the ecosystem, while at the same time nurturing children’s “ecological imagination” through various hexagonal modules.

考虑到该建筑是森林中的树屋,而外部装饰是环保的热木槽壁板,以创造与周围树木相匹配的立面。而窗框、屋顶勺子和水槽通过Posco C&C的木材图案高分辨率印刷钢板(PosART)创造出与热木槽壁板相匹配的外部氛围,与树木园形成和谐的景观。同时,这种打印机木质图案的钢板在内部使用,它代表了森林和生态的各种主题,如 “树木、树叶、树环和森林”。

Considering that the building is a treehouse in the forest, and the exterior finish is an eco-friendly thermowood channel siding to create an elevation that matches the surrounding trees. And the window frames, roof scoops and water gutter create an exterior atmosphere that matches the thermowood channel siding through Posco C&C’s wood-patterned high-resolution printed steel plate (PosART), creating a harmonious landscape with the arboretum. Also, this printer wood-patterned steel plate is used inside and it represents the various themes of forest and ecology such as “trees, leaves, tree rings, and forest”.

户外空间将有不同的主题。
– 户外舞台。以现有的树木为中心,由蜂窝状排列组成的空间成为一个户外露台舞台空间。在这里,游客可以坐在户外观看表演,它成为一个向自然开放的教室。
– 雨水花园。通过屋顶的坡度,回收和接收雨水的概念的空间,让孩子们有足够的乐趣元素,如回收资源的教育方面,蜂窝状的水沟。
– 厨房花园。一个通过直接培养植物来刺激和唤醒各种感官的体验空间。

The outdoor space will have different themes.
– Outdoor stage: A space composed of a honeycomb arrangement centering on existing trees becomes an outdoor terrace stage space. Here, visitors can sit and watch performances outdoors, and it becomes a classroom open to nature.
– Rain Garden: A space of the concept of recycling and receiving rainwater through the slope of the roof allows children to have enough fun elements such as the educational aspect of recycling resources, honeycomb gutter.
– Kitchen Garden: An experienced space that stimulates and awakens various senses by cultivating plants directly.

此外,还有一个由各种种植材料组成的屋顶花园和一个授粉花园,我们可以观察和看到昆虫的栖息地和生活。

In addition, there is a roof garden composed of various planting materials and a pollinate garden where we can observe and see the habitat and life of insects.
