A JOURNEY TO THE ART MUSEUM: ‘MMCA GWACHEON PROJECT 2021: ART BUS SHELTER’

‘MMCA Gwacheon Project 2021: Art Bus Shelter’ will be on display at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA) Gwacheon shuttle bus stop until Nov. 21, 2022. The MMCA Gwacheon project is the second project to promote the Gwacheon Pavilion and revitalise this outdoor space.

Therefore, the organiser selected ‘three bus stops (Seoul Grand Park station, the front gate and the back gate of the museum)’ as the locations for a spatial regeneration project, and wanted to…

RICHARD ROGERS, A MASTER OF HIGH-TECH ARCHITECTURE: IN MEMORIAM

On Dec. 18, 2021, Richard Rogers (1933 – 2021) passed away at the age of 88. According to his family, Rogers died at home in London and the cause was not disclosed. Rogers has gone down in the history of architecture for demonstrating high-tech architecture that boldly exposes structures and building services. The project that lifted him to the stature of world-renowned architect was when he won the design competition for the Centre Pompidou in Paris, France. Centre Pompidou (1977), jointly designed with Renzo Piano, is a building with a steel framework, escalators, and services systems that are exposed to the outside. At the time, this design was unprecedented, sparking a lot of debate, but today it is regarded as one of Paris’s modern icons. Rogers was based in London,…

The Foundations and Variations in a House

House Kim Jeoungeun (Kim): Beginning with your Dumulmuri House (1998), you have designed a total of 25 houses thus far. These houses all have their differences in terms of their locations, scales, family members, and specific remits, but I assume that they also have a connecting theme. What do you focus on when designing a house? Jeong Jaeheon (Jeong): I first reflect on the more fundamental things rather than the visual and physical things. It is not about designing a house, but about narrating a life. As such, the most important thing is to understand the users. From the moment I receive a design request, I observe the client carefully until the final phase of construction. I ask myself why the client wants a new house, what kind of life…

THE BEAUTY THAT CLARITY AND PERSISTENCE MAKE: ATELIER KHJ

There is a certain kind of clarity in the objects, furniture, and spaces created by Kim Hyunjong (principal, ATELIER KHJ). Alongside this, there is a commitment to continually changing up his thinking, research and experimentation on materials, and degree of completion of finishing and details. ATELIER KHJ’s work is extraordinary because it is faithful to structure and functions considered the basis of architecture while also raising them to a high aesthetic level.

HOW TO HONOUR AN OLD ELEVATOR: ‘ELEVATION/CIRCULATION’

The exhibition ‘Elevation/Circulation’ was held at d/p from Dec. 15 to 31, 2021. Located on the fourth floor of the Nakwon Sangga, d/p focuses on exploring contemporaneity in its exhibition space for curators. The exhibition was based on elevator no. 3 of Nakwon Sangga.

The main structures that used to form the elevator were displayed in the middle of the gallery.

Instead the remodeling projects centred around major repair occurs, which led to sluggish apartments remodeling projects’.

A Precise World of Abstraction: Jeong Jaeheon

Mindfulness, understanding, hospitability, dignity. These are words that Jeong Jaeheon (professor, Kyung Hee University) often uses when explaining his architecture. Jeong narrates of a world built from intangible and abstract values. In contrast to such ephemeral concepts, however, Jeong’s architecture is extremely exacting and specific. He nails down the thickness of walls and the position of openings with meticulous precision to get the light he wants, creates slight variations in his application of a single material to subtly introduce rhythms in a subdued manner, and even ensures each thread in the curtains is handled in an orderly way. By accuring architectural decisions of various scales, Jeong enables his users to grasp and hold with their hands these invisible values. Let us trace the steps that Jeong has taken in his…

The Language of Modernism and the Sense of Tradition

Introverted Architecture is the constructing a place in which users can remain in a meaningful way. As most architecture is placed in a communal living environment (or natural environment), such as a city or town, it implies relationships between public and private spaces, community and individual, and inside and outside. Gestures made in accordance with this idea serve as the foundations for a society’s conception of architecture. The monumental architecture of the past served to overwhelm the surroundings, to express itself alone, and enforce societal consensus. Houses in ancient cities established more intimate environments with their courtyards for sitting with their backs to the street. In Renaissance cities, the façade of a building on the edge of the street was a means of communication by elevating urban space as public…
