BUDGET

The concept design for the
master plan and city tower of the city of incheon comes from a single
moment, an inspiration, hence, a rediscovery and re-interpretation of a
master piece: Botticelli's Birth of Venus. we strongly believe that
contemporary architecture, today strongly attached with time and
politics and socio-political issues, needs to also form a dialogue with
the past. A dialogue not only understood as literal interpretation but
subjective definition, a metamorphosis of form and meaning. propose to
base our design concept on the Birth of Venus, reinterpreting the act
of birth, the birth of a new that rises from a large body of water and
a rich blend of cultural diversity: the cosmopolitan city of past,
present and future.
Venus is our inspiration. Venus is life, breath, power, and above all
things, beauty. master plan takes all these elements, proposing a large
public space for recreational uses and a city centre as landmark, as well as landscape.
One important aspect of the design concept is to express a sense of
fluidity and flexibility throughout the tower, yet to propose not just
a landmark for the of but an ever changing sign, an image that
represents the city and its instances. inner life of the tower will be
projected on it's outer façade, allowing for a strong visual morphosis
and colourful transitions. Fluidity will also be expressed through form
on the upper, more flexible spaces of the tower, such spaces as the
auditorium, the rock climbing wall, and the Zero gravity Zone where
people may take a
moment to challenge the laws of space, time and weight. The shapes of
these spaces will be fluid, and they will be a literal interpretation
of the birth of Venus, rising from a vast sea into a new world.
