A R T I A R K I is a jcideas ’ art project, building art in architecture and fostering contemporary art across cultures.

j c i d e a s , Joan Chan, Creative Director
Joan Chan is the Founder and Creative Director of jcideas , a multi-disciplinary design studio providing design for architecture and interiors, and specializing in site specific art consultancy service from concept to design and fabrication.

Joan Chan holds a BSC in Architecture from the University of Sydney, Australia and an MArch from Hong Kong University, HK, as well as a BFA in Ceramics from RMIT, Australia and an MFA in Ceramics from Tokyo Geidai, Japan.

Artiarki is located in a special district in Icheon City, which is famous for its traditional porcelain art and the Ceramics Culture and Arts Festival every year.

To the south beyond the highway, the beautiful nature of low mountains stretches out like a folding screen. This small basin-like pottery village will become home to the studios and galleries of various artists. Like most planned cities, the harmony and individuality of buildings are required within new order, rather than the humanistic context of existing cities.

The Building has three main programs: gallery and shop for lease on the first floor, gallery and academy on the second floor, and residential facilities on the third floor. The entire programs are connected by a single circulation line across the two buildings.

The five shop spaces that will be used to sell artwork or art-related products are adjacent to the pedestrian walkways, and the shop in the corners has a high floor height. The original plan was to create a shallow, sunken style concert hall and a terraced rest space on the first floor between the two masses, but was withdrawn due to construction cost.

Unlike general circulations of floor to floor, one circulation of climbing up and down the stairs and crossing bridges makes a simple and prompt connection between the programs in each space. Also these bridges are designed to be linked to various events in the courtyard. The bridge, which connects and surrounds the courtyard between the two buildings, but not perpendicular to the buildings, adds a lot of fun to the space with 1.4m high concrete parapets and open air.

When you climb the stairs next to the entrance, you will pass through the 2nd floor space where you can look down on the 1st floor gallery space with a double-height ceiling and you will be connected to the private exhibition area. The private exhibition area is designed slightly off the center axis of the building, therefore creates a unique space experience by opening the front window over the lifted stage. If you cross the 2nd floor bridge from the stairs, you may see the door to the workshop space where visitors can experience various culture and arts, and the outer stairway leading to the third floor residence.

The third floor residence has a unique residential layout. When you climb the stairs, you will see the space divided by a terrace in the center, an Independent main kitchen area on your right, and a guest space for husband on your left. The public space of the building ends at this point. The private space of the building is separated from the public space by a bridge between two spaces. Once you across the bridge, you will enter the private residence with two bedrooms for a couple and their two daughters.

Among the many distinctive buildings created under the one theme of ceramic art village, it stands out with its strong appearance, boasting its time and efforts for design and construction. It appears to be an exposed concrete building, simply consisted of a two-box building, but the building has a ‘transition block’ between two floors. An axis transition of the mass, following another axis different from the axis of the main building, makes a strong three-dimensional facade facing the winding road. These irregular shapes of two axes make a strong impression and intrigue pedestrians’ curiosity about the inside of the building. Also, exposed concrete has delicate details of well-organized pattern of pine panels. Originally the direction of pine panel pattern was planned to be horizontal, but was changed to vertical during the construction process.
