As vernacular architecture is shaped by climatic conditions, the resulting forms often assume a mythical role. Exploring structures from houses to simple altars, the concept of a spirit ladder has been derived. Can the rules established for the movement of supernatural beings also be applied in a modern facility, and what role can they play?

FLOW

"Flow" is a holistic wellness center that spatializes well-being through layered volumes and intersecting planes. Rejecting traditional closed rooms, it eliminates forced routes in favor of fluid, non-linear circulation. Strategic galleries dissolve boundaries, allowing users to experience the space freely at their own rhythm while staying connected.

Rethinking the urban health of heritage fringes.

The intent is to revive urban fringes in historic cities by making heritage an active part of daily life.

Earth Pavilion

The Earth Pavilion features a central space that aligns with the four cardinal points. Hexagon-shaped structures extend from each point, surrounded by concentric circles that flow inward and outward. These structures are supported by a cover of stretched canvas. The voids within the pavilion resemble attractors of biodiversity.

The educational center will be a space preserving the heritage of folk stories.
