Text description provided by the architects. The site facing the Seojong district road is narrow and gets wider as one gets deeper. The narrow side of the site is a weakness for a commercial purpose. Fortunately, vehicles rather than pedestrians are predominant in the neighborhood so we imagined a variety of images provided by the project as vehicles pass by. It displays different impressions from different angles of the road, and, at the same time, flexible curvature attracts the view deep into the site. The surface of the façade is sometimes smooth, sometimes rough, and sometimes bumpy, with a tambour profile. Even the smooth façade transitions into a series of louver columns, which control and alleviate daylight transmits to the indoors. We hoped that such an unconventional volume of the building would promote unexpected interactions within the site.
