Making a New One from the Past


The leader of this era must be the youth.
This project is residential proposal for students of Korea University. Containing students facilities related to student autonomy like clubroom, office and conference place for student associations. These attempt is to overwhelming the disconnected status between Anam Dong and Korea University, and carving new accumulations from the deep physical and mental relationship in this town. The building which has these purposes is like a ship sailing in the town. The spirit of the space would spread out through the time, and the starting point is the youth and their activities; student autonomy.






Halted Accumulation

Subject drive of collectives and culture were the temporary "visitors", outnumbering the actual residents of Anam-Dong, the Korea University Students. However, Korea University has encroached all contents like drinking booth, activity spaces, plaza, and so on.
"The visitors" don't have to walk around the town due to this condition.


Inserting Elements in Stopped Time
A change must occur in order to develop a more lively society. Change begins from the past. In other words, something new inserted deeply in the past accumulations would affect surrounding objects. New elements must have contrast and be different from the past things.
