Abstract

As regards of designing, I chose a simple wall design of repeating pattern of vertical windows, rather than making the building as a glamourous obzet. This kind of approach was intended to pursue strong image of construction company, interchanging and communicating with its confused surrounding. Therefore, I boldly removed parts that I considered needless from the facade, and used simple and easy words clearly implying the organization. Lobby is the face of the building, but since the space is deep and narrow and the reality of lease should be considered, there was limit to give original image to the lobby. Instead, high ceiling is the biggest feature of this space. Doorae Engineering-Construction Corp. is young and energetic company. I wanted to highlight the young and energetic image of the company by crossing tore oblique piece of boards. This doesn't just has a simple function as ceiling, but also work as a major subject in the space. In addition of this powerful space of oblique lines, indirect lighting is used to emphasize the character of territory, continuity and deepness of the space. Character of territory that divides main and supplementary function and main and supplementary moving line is expressed by flow of dimension, and continuity and deepness of space is emphasized by indirect lighting flowing linearly through the crack between the ceiling and the wall.
