Production Technology
The columnar structure considering sustainability is designed to be able to cope with future scalability and changes. GFRC, which constitutes the exterior, is a technology manufactured through a mold and synthesizes concrete and glass fibers to implement a system with a durability of 100 years in design. The interior design of the unit was carried out with a new configuration considering openness and scalability, away from the existing residence framework using smart glass technology.

This is a new challenge in property value. And the positive response and response of consumers in the current volatile real estate market disproves the successful settlement of the project.
Research
Professor Kim Nando of Seoul National University: Refer to the Research Data on Lifestyle Housing Platform Product/Operation Strategy
Inspiration
The project started with a site called Garak in Seoul. Unlike in the past, Garak was a safe place due to the flooding of the Hangang River. Considering the regional characteristics of preventing external waves, the elevation design was designed with the motif of the columnar joint. In addition, it borrowed the form of curves and waves of freedom in the intangible meaning of "joy" in the name of the melody to draw sympathy from users by designing the main entrance and community.
Project Duration
This project is the center of development in the eastern part of Seoul, where new future values will be realized along with continuous development. Construction begins in September 2022 and is scheduled to be completed in October 2025.
Operation Flow
Existing small housing markets often focus on habitability and cost-effectiveness. Asty Garak refers to the need for high-end spaces and communities tailored to the changing lifestyle and society as value consumption MZ generation and young rich increase. In addition, the maximum outdoor area is guaranteed with an average of 40 square meters of small residential 3bay configuration, maximizing residential comfort compared to existing small residential areas.
