Layered House

Gwangjin District, Seoul, South Korea

STATUS
Built
YEAR
2024
Layered House is located in a sloping alleyway in Seocho-dong. This alley is filled with villas on the fourth and fifth floors, and you walk away looking at the automatic door and parking lots of the villa's front entrance. I hoped to pervade naturally in this alleyway where similar but different types of buildings are concentrated.
The first floor is a commercial facility and consists of a program that can be used with local residents. The second floor is an office, and the third, fourth, and fifth floors are planned as residential areas. When viewed from the outside, the slab is exposed to the outside to separate programs and materials. It provides a sense of scale that fits the pedestrian who walks by dividing the large mass into small pieces. Conversely, in order to make it feel like a solid mass when viewed from a distance, a lot of windows are placed in the front of the road, and windows are minimized on the side.
A garden that can be used by builders and tenants of commercial facilities on the first floor is planned in the spare space behind the building to make it look like a secret garden that is not visible from the road. By placing the building as close as possible on the side road, the accessibility of local residents using the commercial facilities on the first floor has improved.
The entrance to the stairwell is finished with a front brick from the outside to the inside. With the continuous use of main materials, it gives the impression of an alleyway that naturally connects from the outside to the inside and becomes a symbol of the entrance. The office on the second floor has no part divided by the center wall, and all the outer walls are made of glass, so you can feel an open sense of openness, and the connection between the outside can be made through the view.
The 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors are residential floors. The 4th and 5th floors are planned for a space to go outside, so that the inside and outside connection is possible with a feeling of openness like the 2nd floor. The last floor has a small external space to go outside to the attic floor. This small external space has a good view because it can secure a view to the front and rear of the building.
In this way, the building is planned to be in harmony with the surroundings with the proper connection inside and outside and a proper sense of scale, and it is planned as a multi-family house where users can live in an appropriate harmony with the surroundings
