SWNA was in charge of the architecture, interior design and construction of our new building in collaboration with Yung A Kim Architects. SWNA's new building features a neat architectural style and randomly-arranged large rectangular windows, in marked contrast to the low, natural silhouette of buildings in Bukchon-gil.
The building consisting of four floors including the basement was designed to faithfully function as a gallery, with the high height from the floor of the first and underground floors. The large window on the stairs from the first floor to the second floor overlooks the roof of the Korean-style house, and the bamboo blends in with the landscape.
Since the second and third floors are used as offices, the interior was designed using laminates and white stainless steel. It is a linear space, but becomes an open or closed space according to the purpose by applying glass partitions and curtains.
