Project Descriptions

In 2021, when corona virus infection has spread rapidly around the world, just in the last few months, millions of people have been taken ill in the world due to this virus. In that situation, it is now of worldwide interest to re-think how our cities will adapt a post Covid-19 era and take the necessary actions. Understanding that social distancing is vital importance, our various daily-life spaces will face an inevitable change.

We had an opportunity to participate in the International Design Competition of the Multi-use Project for the Labor Welfare Center and Happy House in Seoul. In that project, we were not not only design whole building follow competition’s requirement have multi-use function (Labor Welfare and Happy House), we also considered about developing innovative concepts for new built enviroment that able to adapt to this era, and considered about the image of building in that place.

In the past, Guro district was an Industrial Complex which holds the memories and lessons of history. Unfortunately, nowadays people lost the memory of that time in which this city was able to be woven one-by-one through the sacrifice of labor class. In additional, this design competition aims to make Guro Labor Welfare Center be a Multi-use building, it’s mean our design need to share more public spaces with more people. It gives identity to the street and invites people to the interior by creating a lacking space in the city.
