Project Scope: 25,000 sq. ft. Public gallery and Employee Support & Services

Mass Studies, 2009

Located at the bottom of a hill leading to the Leeum Art Complex, the Samsung Life Building is designed to support Samsung Employee Services.

The building was imagined as a gateway mediating the approach to the hill. The design includes space for outdoor exhibition at the street corner and provides ground floor art galleries. The exterior wall is a structural “shell” of concrete construction finished with white stone brick. The top of the wall is a gradiated pattern of white stone, translucent white marble and clear resin brick to allow light to pass the otherwise monolithic exterior.

Project Scope: Community pavilion for up to 60 people

Mass Studies, 2010

Completed the Fall of 2010, Anyang Public Art Project’s Open School was designed to house the Art Project’s many programs and exhibitions. Following the completion of the 2010 events, Open School continues to be available for use by the Anyang City community.

As part of the Open School, our Mass Studies’ team created the Open Pavilion, a steel tube structure partially enclosed by a clear pvc cover and equipped with hammock seating. The pavilion was designed to provide a flexible space for a variety of uses, including community gatherings, presentations, performances.

As science pushes forward, breakthroughs continue to test the limits of social and moral codes. This inadverdently places science under the watchful eye of the concerned public, as has been poignantly illustrated in recent times. This, coupled with the need to decipher scientific language in order to aid public understanding, demands transparency within science.

This project explores the consequence of transparency as a physical and philosophical point of mediation.

The dominant vision of education places the teacher and administration at the head of learning: agendas and criteria are created and propagated as a “vision” for the future generation. This project moves to question the standard by filling the space between the teacher and the student, the individual and the group, the specialized and the generic.The issue of design as a process was of particular interest to this studio. Issues of fabrication and digital design were brought into question and closely studied. Close documentation of workflow was emphasized in order to develop an efficiency of production, taking advantage of digital design tools and cnc fabrication.

In considering the “industrial loft” as a type, the design works to expose as much of the interior workings of the building as possible.

The design is divided programmatically into a public gallery and private loft spaces intended for lease. The ground floor provides much of the gallery space, a private tenant entry lobby with industrial size elevator and management offices. The gallery is extended to the rooftop garden by another industrial size elevator that will be open for use by the public during display hours. Access to the tenant spaces at floors two through seven is only allowed to tenants.

The façade of Dance Studio and Performance Center is a custom designed double-skin curtain wall system in 6’ x 8’ modules with space for a maintenance cat-walk. The exterior skin is cable-stayed, supported by a space truss at the top floor and articulated away from the building at various points. The interior skin is a unitized curtain wall system with operable awning window for ventilation. At night, the building takes on a whole new character, lit-up to openly reveal the lines of the structure, the module of the curtain wall, framing the activity of the people inside.
