The Eungam Hana Public Kindergarten is a project that proposes a new spatial concept for childcare facilities that respond to the underdeveloped surrounding environment in high-density urban areas. It is the first childcare facility of Hana Financial Group to be built in Seoul. The site is an isolated area surrounded by old commercial and residential buildings on three sides, except for a narrow one-lane road. Although it is a place where a childcare facility is located, where lighting and ventilation are of the utmost importance, it was difficult to establish a pleasant living environment due to the adjacent buildings that were built very close together. We put a lot of effort into resolving the irrationality of the old residential area and designing an efficient spatial layout. The context of the site was too poor to experiment with abstract architectural vocabulary and theoretical architectural discourse. Therefore, we tried to approach the site from a thoroughly empirical perspective. We tried to show a typical example of Korean Sustainable Adaptive Architecture in a high-density urban area based on a methodology that can be verified through data and simulation. Specifically, the high-ceilinged stairwell atrium was placed on the south side to solve the problem of a lack of lighting due to the adjacent buildings. Cross ventilation was made possible through the facade that was open to the east and west, thereby responding to the changes in the microclimate around the building. In addition, slender vertical louvers were applied as a device to protect children from the surrounding gaze in the dense land, and many parts, such as the Movable Louver Frame, which helps firefighters respond in emergencies, actively reflect innovative architectural methodologies.

Our children are beings to be protected without any discrimination and are a mirror to see the future. In that sense, the national and public daycare center project hosted by Hana Financial Group, which has already created a home for children through Suchae's daycare center project, is more meaningful than any other project. This daycare center, which will be built in Goesan, Chungcheongbuk-do, is an important social asset that will meet the demand for daycare centers in existing apartment complexes and new housing districts, and has value beyond a simple daycare center. Its purpose is to realize a daycare center as a sound fence where safety, security, and play can coexist beyond the existing daycare center. In addition, this project reflects the identity of Hana Financial Group and has a strong character of differentiated space branding. In other words, the purpose is to create a space where a variety of interactive indoor and outdoor activities can occur while safety and security are basically guaranteed beyond the location conditions and physical context of the site. Therefore, based on Hana Financial Group's branding, efforts were made to realize a passive and sustainable architecture that combines innovative external space with warm internal space. In accordance with the goal of the HNSS design guidelines, we tried to solve the space around four keywords: Hybrid, Nature, Smart, and Storytelling. Specifically, hybrid play activities were made possible through the spatial composition of the extended outdoor living organically intertwined without distinction between indoor and outdoor floors. Through physical external spaces such as the playground courtyard, sand playground, and terrace playground, communion with nature was possible, and smart education was intended to be possible through the planting room and nursery room where ecological farm experiences are possible.

The site is surrounded by surrounding buildings and has somewhat isolated location characteristics. Moreover, due to the narrow site characteristics due to the 3m step difference with the green area on the south side, if the floor area on the lower floors increases, adequate sunlight cannot be secured. The sanatorium is a facility where sunlight and ventilation are very important. In order to overcome these limitations of the site, it was necessary to reduce the area as much as possible on the lower floors, but this was impossible due to the design guidelines. Accordingly, by processing the mass itself simply, a building shape in the form of a linear garden rather than a courtyard type was derived. Through the transition space leading to the Curtainwall-Arcade, it was intended to maximize the sense of openness indoors and to give users comfort by allowing them to view the Pocket Garden from the outside. In general, in the case of a flat roof, internal circulation is not performed well due to stagnant air on the upper part. Therefore, the buoyancy of air increases as it goes from the center to the façade, which is intended to promote smooth internal circulation. General curtain wall façades are difficult to adjust according to the season because it is difficult to adjust the sunlight. The arcade-type eaves serve as awnings with an extended roof, which is advantageous for forming indoor shade spaces in stadiums where sunlight is essential. Building Respiration is a methodology that maximizes circulation through breathable construction devices. Light and natural ventilation are provided through the permeable façade. The purpose is to maintain a pleasant indoor climate with a design that considers the direction and degree of sunlight, not just a simple ceiling. In sustainable design, the physical properties of floor materials are an important factor in determining the indoor temperature.

The most crucial factors in expanding the existing building were respect for the surrounding context and the exploration of new possibilities through architectural devices. Locating the new library between the existing main building and annex posed an interesting architectural challenge, but it was also a challenging project that could easily compromise respect for the context. A crucial element in forming the library cluster was the openness of the first floor. Rather than simply emphasizing openness for the sake of openness, the project prioritized an openness that was appropriate for the current and future context. The context that most significantly influenced the architectural concept of this project was the campus green axis connecting the library, pond, and campus forest. A key issue was how architecture could create a broad spectrum of landscapes. Based on these considerations, the plan focused on how to incorporate open views from the lower floors to the symbol of Seoul National University of Science and Technology within the building masses. Architecturally feasible linear elements were extracted from the current logo, borrowing from the linear form of the Dasan Hall building. Based on this, a massing form was created that allows individual views from each floor. To derive the optimal flow of traffic, we designed an innovative library that can actively respond to the surrounding environment by organizing zoning through program-specific grouping logic and implementing it as a double-skinned building.

The loss of production competitiveness in the traditional construction industry is accelerating due to the limitations of the existing site-centered, skilled technician-centered construction method. Due to changes in labor standards, a decrease in the quantity and quality of technical manpower, and an increase in labor costs, off-site construction (OSC) is being promoted as a policy. Due to the development of construction technology and smart design, the future construction environment, working environment, and technological environment are gradually becoming de-sited and de-managed. In the case of OSC-based PC structure apartment housing, the domestic case is only one case of LH Asan Tangjeong, and since most of them are wall-type PC structures, the need for architectural planning review for the beam-column PC structure demonstration project is emerging. This project was designed as the first OSC-based beam-column PC structure in Korea.

The Heygate estate was designed as a low-income social housing located in the South London borough of Southwark. It housed over 1200 families for more than three decades. Prior to the 1930s, the area consisted of a suburb of Victorian tenements, which were considerably damaged during the German bombings in World War II. The council thereupon decided to demolish and rebuild in the area rather than repair the extensive damage, leading to a major post-war regeneration project designed by architect Tim Tinkers, which started in the 1960s and was completed in 1974. Due to the economic crisis during its construction, it was constructed quickly with limited funds. In the context of the city in the 1970's the estate had been designed in a manner that separated it from the dirty and polluted surroundings and created a safe and green haven inside. But with the rise in unemployment in the 1980s, there was an increase in crimes and other anti-social activities, and there were social and other issues that arose in the estate from this. The landscape of the site has been planned, integrating the surroundings of the site. The outdoors have been planned around three focal nodes, two to the northern side (Node 1 & 2) and one to the southern side. Node 1 is a conjunction of all pedestrian paths connecting the site to the Elephant & Castle, and Node 2 is where all traffic flowing in from the rest of the master plan reaches the site; both of these nodes are aimed towards use by the public. Node 3 is planned as a more private buffer zone, which can be used by residents and people from the residential neighborhood to the south.

The motive of the Suseo-dong Community Center is the restoration of Suseo-gyeong. The Suseo-dong Community Service Center faces Gwangpyeong-ro in front, and is located in a position corresponding to the face of Gwangpyeong-ro seen from the end of the street. Accordingly, the existing blocked façade was organized and removed to restore the open view toward Gwangpyeong-ro from the Suseo-dong community center, Suseo-gyeong. Through this, we wanted to create a garden where residents can feel the four seasons. Because the proportion of residents with mobility difficulties is higher than in other districts, a convenient circulation line was established, considering the turning radius of wheelchairs. If the façade of the community center is open toward Gwangpyeong-ro, the interior is intended to be a more spacious and organized community center by arranging ceiling lights and louver lines parallel to the city axis. For a calm and simple atmosphere, the overall color scheme is gray and white, and furniture in primary colors is placed here and there to induce a lively atmosphere. Considering the possibility of expansion in the future, it was designed by emphasizing the scalability of the front part. By giving the identity of Suseo-gyeong to the existing façade and creating a new garden, it is hoped that the Suseo-dong Community Center will become a comfortable resting place for the residents. Under the motif of restoring Suseo-gyeong, a new void was created in the community center by opening a view towards Gwangpyeong-ro, reflecting the characteristics of the community center with an outstanding view to the outside compared to other buildings. Considering the characteristics of residents who visit without a bit of peace of mind, it is intended to function as a spatially calm and open resting place.

Patriotism and veterans begin with not forgetting the past. And the development of the nation is achieved when we do not forget the incidents created by those martyrdoms and work hard on the events they made. And the stacking of those events over time. The Seodaemun Veterans Hall was motivated by the desire to become a space that contains the layers of such events. Just like stone stacking, in which the upper stone does not collapse only when there is a solid lower stone, we tried to solve the flow of the spirit of veterans who overcome the pain of the past and go beyond the present to the future with the keyword of stacking events. I tried to implement it in the form. A city is a vessel that holds buildings, and a building is a vessel that holds people and events. Numerous stories are piled up in the space we live in. As an architect, designing this building should be able to bring a new vitality to the town of Yeonhui-dong. It should contain new stories and become a space where the future can be stacked beyond the stacking of the past. It should be a space that contains nature, villages, and stories. The motivation for designing this building started from the stacking of the space as well as the stacking of events. Considering the context of the surrounding environment, a roof garden on the third floor and a rooftop garden were installed on the rooftop to emphasize the character of the green building. To this end, a soil depth of 850 mm was secured, and planting of tall trees was made possible. The plantings planted on the roof garden and the rooftop floor will not only shield the cooling tower and water tank, but also provide a healthy, sunny environment indoors.
