Abstract |
In the 1960s, architect Kim Chung-up left several of his work at Jeju National University. However, sufficient research had not been
conducted on his work other than the former headquarter building located there. The purpose of this study is to uncover the architectural
characteristics of Kim’s works by reviewing various past photographic materials and literature related to this university in the 1960s. Upon
analysis, the new details disclosed that Moon, Jong-Chul, Dean of Jeju National University at that time, had planned the entire campus
master plan from the beginning of his inauguration. Several buildings for the Department of Agriculture utilized stones from the local area as
structure walls. This revealed that the architect’s design was influenced by the vernacular architecture of the city of Jeju. The romantic
design of the former headquarter building was influenced by his previous Department of Agriculture building designs. Lastly, unlike the
former headquarter building, the building of the Department of Fisheries showed typical design techniques of 1960s buildings. By examining
existing literature and materials, the process and characteristics of Kim Chung-up's original works at Jeju National University were discovered. |
