This project has been awarded the Prix Versailles - World's Most Beautiful Hotel 2024.
The recently completed Yeongwol Jongtaek is a traditional Hanok hotel with a total floor area of 16,332 m2, consisting of 78 buildings, 137 rooms (35 independent rooms, 102 row houses), a cultural exhibition hall, an outdoor banquet hall, a seminar room, a spa, and exercise facilities. This is the first private space of The Hanok Heritage House, which is scheduled to be completed. This project started from the basics of using well-dried, high-quality wood to build a good Hanok.
In order to use the highest quality wood, wood drying equipment was developed and wood dried using a developed microwave method was used. In order to bring the natural scenery intact into the room, the highest quality transparent insect screen made in Europe was used to create the illusion that there was no insect screen. The structure is a Hanok, but convenience, such as insulation, has been enhanced by using cutting-edge insulation materials.
Upon entering a hanok room, guests are greeted by a subtle wood scent that they have never experienced in any other space. It was planned to allow guests to feel the natural scent of wood rather than using an artificial diffuser.
In addition, to ensure a comfortable rest for guests who visit this place, the basic layout of the private rooms is made of the highest quality bed mattresses, and the night here is filled with beautiful scenery wherever you look, so that you can remember your night here. The floors of each Yeongwol Jongtaek building are made of Korean wood. The two rooms and lounge are mostly centrally located to maintain maximum distance between rooms. Configure. Each building has a different layout and different heights, so you can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery even indoors. The interior of the ground uses fabric, wood, and a lighting system controlled by cutting-edge IOT to provide warmth and comfort to customers, and various auxiliary functions operated by sensors are operated invisibly to ensure customer convenience while using the room. It was designed to provide.
The basement consists of one guest room, living room, kitchen, dry twin, study, media room, and winery. The basement living room was renovated to allow for variable play in a variety of situations, and elements of various spaces, including the kitchen system and furniture, were designed and produced. Traditional Korean materials and craft techniques, such as Korean paper, Hanjibal, Nakhwa, and Nakdong, were reorganized with modern uses and applied throughout the space to create a rich aesthetic.
The external public space consists of a garden that can be used exclusively and an infinity pool that can be enjoyed while relaxing in the pavilion. We hope to establish ourselves as a Hanok heritage house that offers a variety of performances and cultural events, comfortable rest, and authentic value to visitors.
