Formation of Space by Surface-Structure Integration in Contemporary Architecture - Based on the Design Concept of Environmental Regeneration of Old Town in Seocheon -

Purpose: This study is to propose a methodology for the formation of space according to the integration of structural concept and architectural concerns in the contemporary era. Beginning with researching on the theoretical fundamentals about surface-structure, it introduces several architectural examples to analyze its own structural form and spatial characteristics, and finally simulates a model for the formation of space through a real work. Method: The study is partially based on the Executive Architectural Project for 'Village of Spring' in Seocheon, which was planned in 2008 to suggest a strategic settlement layout for urban regeneration, and completed in 2012. Making architectural vocabularies permeated into surface-structure, throughout the design process of initially pursued concepts to the design development stage, we could encounter a new type of innovative space formation. It shows that the structure is one of most useful means for the realization of architectural concepts, and a design itself. Result: The expected result of the study intends to enhance the relationship between spatial formation and surface-structure, also ultimately to produce a structural system as 'space generator' to fulfill the social needs and its requirements.
