Text description provided by the architects. Joyful Church chose Beck to create a new facility for the church's growing, vibrant worship and education programs on Sundays and for the church's many social welfare ministries during the week. The church's vision was to have a design that expressed a strong symbolic Christian message, but that also used traditional Korean symbols in a fusion of architecture, faith and culture. The location was a 10 acre site in a new town development area of Pohang. This site had many development challenges included steep, wooded hillsides and strict zoning limitations.
