Background - This project was planned as a funeral home for pets, and it was carried out in the form of remodeling existing buildings, not new construction. The building located on the outskirts of Gimpo-si, which is a mixture of rice fields, factories, and nature, is the first pet funeral hall in Korea and has been operating since 1999 and was established to promote the right pet funeral culture in the absence of a legal system for pet funeral. Residents' complaints against attraction due to negative perceptions of cremation facilities and local governments' passive attitude toward building activities would have led to the judgment that it is more reasonable than new construction to acquire and remodel existing buildings that used to operate as funeral homes.
