自然┃文化 – ROUTE52 CC位于骊州丹山的最高山脊上，由一片广阔的平原组成。我们对这个得天独厚的地方的期望–即使从远处看也很容易找到的完美位置，能够一起享受广阔的绿色和自然–不幸的是，在现场调查时，我们发现几十公顷的红褐色土壤被颠覆了。我们没有马虎地模仿自然，主张 “建筑与自然融为一体”，而是自相矛盾地认为，我们应该做建筑，把自然留给自然，这才是最自然的事情。在那个地方，我们决定把又长又宽的混凝土块放置在那里，就像它的原始状态一样冷漠。
NATURE┃CULTURE – ROUTE52 CC is located on the highest ridge of Dangsan Mountain in Yeoju, which consists of a broad plain. Our expectations for this blessed place – the perfect location that can be easily found even from a distance offering a distant view and being able to enjoy the vast green and nature together – were unfortunately utterly blown away during the on-site survey when we found dozens of hectares of upended red-brown soil. Instead of mimicking nature sloppily by advocating the idea of ‘architecture that blends in with nature,’ we instead thought paradoxically that we should do the architecture and leave nature to nature and that this would be the most natural thing. In that site, we decided to place the long and wide concrete mass as raw as it is indifferently.
崇高的美和强大的形式–我们打算给予不可预测的美或灵感。我们的目的是给原始的材料以简单的形式，大、长、高的辉煌，并进行大胆的改造，保持粗糙的表面原貌。我们相信，这是建筑融入自然的最佳方式。长方形和宏伟的裸露混凝土框架是一个捕捉自然的镜头。高而长的砖墙一个接一个地矗立着，目的是为了吸引注意力和交通从外面到里面，创造空间的深度。我们将厚实的屋顶混凝土表面自然延伸，形成天幕，并通过混凝土中心的大圆孔捕捉天空。
Sublime Beauty and Strong Form – We intended to give unpredictable beauty or inspiration. We aimed to give the material as raw as it takes on a simple form, a large, long, and tall splendor, and a bold transformation, keeping the rough surface as it is. We believed that this was the best way for architecture to blend in with nature. The rectangular and magnificent exposed concrete frame is a lens that captures nature. Tall and long-brick walls standing one after another are intended to draw attention and traffic from outside to inside, creating the depth of space. We extended the thick roof concrete surface to form a canopy naturally and captured the sky through a large round hole in the center of the concrete.
带有野生脉络图案的石柱支撑着天棚的顶点，被设计成菱形，设置了第一和最后印象的焦点。混凝土的 “原始性” – 混凝土是最诚实的建筑材料。它是一种结构，使建筑能够独立存在，也是构成建筑内部和外部的一种装饰材料。而且，它不是可以在其他地方制造和组装的东西，而是必须在建筑物实际所在的地方以一种形式制造。我们接受了原始性的不便，并决定按原样呈现。我们把又长又高的混凝土块挖空，并对边缘进行倒角，以强调形状，扩大平面，形成一个巨大的洞。
The stone pillar with wild vein patterns supporting the vertex of the canopy was designed in a diamond shape, setting the focal point of the first and last impressions. ‘Rawness’ of Concrete – Concrete is the most honest building material. It is a structure that allows the building to stand on its own and a finishing material that composes the interior and exterior of the building. Also, it is not something that can be made and assembled elsewhere but must be made in a form in the place where the building will actually be. We accepted the inconvenience of rawness and decided to present it as it is. We hollowed the long and tall concrete mass and chamfered edges to emphasize the shape, expanding the planes and making a huge hole.
砖的’质感’ – 砖是一个小单位，它的属性根据其形状的不同而实现。我们把水泥砖做成的墙一个接一个地重叠在混凝土的框架中，并打算创造从巨大的质量中感受到的 “编织的纹理 “的感觉，以及从材料的纯度中感受到的温暖。石头的’野性’–主入口的柱子完全支撑着沉重的混凝土顶棚，体现了一种坚硬而精致的晶体。从八角形到正方形，再回到八角形，这种几何形状的平面变化自相矛盾，是这个建筑中唯一具有自然图案的结构。我们打算给人这样的感觉：由强烈的黑白脉络图案组成的野性被很好地提炼和驯服。
‘Texture’ of Brick – A brick is a small unit, and its properties are implemented variously depending on its shape. We overlapped the walls made of cement bricks one after another into the frame of concrete and intended to create the feeling of ‘weaved texture’ felt from the huge mass and the warmth that comes from the purity of the material. ‘Wildness’ of Stone – The pillar of the main entrance that solely supports the heavy concrete canopy embodies a hard and refined crystal. The geometric shape that changes the planar shape from octagon to square and back to octagon paradoxically is the only structure with natural patterns in this building. We intended to give the feeling that the wildness, composed of intense black and white vein patterns, is well refined and tamed.
