| Abstract |
This study aims to offer an insight into Joh Sung-yong's architectural philosophy through an analysis of his language and its correlation with
weathering. Initially, three key concepts of landscape, urban architecture, and history of site were identified from his descriptions of project
cores or concepts. The concept of landscape evolved from visual scenery to encompass sensory experiences, culture, and tradition rooted in
climate. Urban architecture underscores the symbiotic relationship between architecture and the city, enriching public spaces like streets and
fostering communal expressions to build communities. Additionally, history of site underscores the temporal and historical aspects of places,
maintaining continuity while addressing contemporary issues to shape future directions. Thus, landscape encapsulates Joh Sung-yong's
architectural philosophy, embodying both urban architecture and history of site. Meanwhile, Joh Sung-yong perceived weathering as the natural
aging process of buildings, symbolizing the passage of time and eventual transformation into waste. It served as evidence of a site's history
and contributes to the landscape. An analysis of weathering in Joh Sung-yong's regeneration projects and cultural facilities revealed its
ambivalence, with its acceptable range varying depending on the project context and surrounding environment. Despite limitations, such as not
covering Joh Sung-yong's background and interests in film, the study reevaluates his relatively under-explored contributions, providing a
foundational understanding of his architectural philosophy for future research. |
