Tribu House by Parnell / ALIVEUS architecture

Tribu House by Parnell was created with various purposes. It was intended to be a domestic showroom for high-end European furniture as well as a space to be used as a bakery cafe. The client had a requirement that the furniture display not look like a typical furniture store and be naturally integrated into the building and its interior and exterior spaces. Additionally, the client wanted to implement an architectural style that had not been seen before in Korea, with a high degree of completion. One of the main criteria was the client's aesthetic preference for arched windows. To avoid the design looking like a mere imitation of traditional European architecture with classical arched windows, we made an effort to find a design language beyond this.

When traveling from Gangneung to Yangyang in Korea, you can see buildings with grids on their facades if you take Donghae Highway. Surfers began to gather in the small, quiet village, which is located at the entrance to the village. Although the town's face has changed due to the somewhat aggressive exposure of the facades, the architecture is intended to bring new vitality to the area by changing the environment and view, as well as having a concise and organized design that will be helpful to the region.

TRIVIUM Wellness Culture Complex Space / ALIVEUS architecture

There is a type of architecture that is completed with a focus on the natural environment and architectural principles. The client desired a space of pure relaxation and emptiness, as nature provides, with the mountains, water, and sky being the primary themes throughout the design process. The client named the place "TRIVIUM," with the aim of conveying the aesthetics of emptiness to visitors through the three natural elements. The conundrum of filling and emptying in the process of architecture was paradoxical, similar to the wave-particle duality of light, and it was not easy to consider lessening the artificial buildings on the land, which had only earth and grass. The design process involved repeated collaboration with the client and a focus on simplicity, creating a design that incorporated nature into each space.
