About Interpolation 아트 갤러리

인터폴레이션(Interpolation)은 서울 석촌호수공원 내에 계획된 아트 갤러리이다. 공원에는 호수와 함께 안쪽과 바깥쪽으로 나뉜 두 개의 순환 산책로가 있으며, 두 산책로는 4미터의 높이 차이로 구분되어 있다. 갤러리는 이 두 개의 동선을 연결하는 유기적인 통로를 형성하며 공원으로 들어서는 새로운 관문을 만들어낸다. 건물 매스는 곡면 알루미늄 패널로 마감되었고, 조경과 맞닿는 데크는 노출 콘크리트로 마감되었다. 지열 히트펌프와 지붕의 태양광 패널을 통해 에너지 사용량을 절감한다. 예술을 일상 속으로 끌어들이고자 하는 것이 이 프로젝트의 의도이다.

Unique Properties
Lacking amenities for a cultural experience, Seoul City called for a design competition of an art museum within the Seokchon Lake Park. The proposal is a winning scheme under development; construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2021. The proposed design aims to provide a visual mark as an entry into the park. The newly introduced interpolating path connects the discontinuous outer ring path and inner ring path, bisecting the site to design a new "gateway" to the park.
Dimensions & Packaging
Site Area: 1,396.58㎡
Building Area: 1,543.2㎡
Floor No: Below grade 1 floor, Above grade 3 floors
Building Height: 15m

Production Technology
The overall form, even though visually appears organic, is designed with fully developable, rationalized surfaces. The building mass will be constructed with curved aluminum panels, and the deck structure which meets the park landscape directly will be finished with exposed concrete. The project also includes various sustainability measures from ground-source heat pumps to photovoltaic panels on the roof, meeting Seoul City's zero-energy code for public buildings.
Design Challenge
Public projects in Korea are often limited by financial funding and complicated approval process. The project intends to be an art by itself and is going through rigorous geometrical studies for optimized fabrication and construction. Only 20% of the overall panels are required to be curved, and the use of flat panels is maximized. The project received approval from the Park Commission, considered one of the most challenging processes for buildings located in public parks.
Inspiration
The general concept of architectural interpolation stems from analyzing the current site conditions and context of Seokchon Lake Park. A public park located in Seoul City, it has a unique topographical character. The park is composed of a lake and (2) separate ring paths, one inner around the lake, and an outer peripheral following the city's roadways. 4m elevation difference between the two walkways separates the two with limited connections. Interpolating an organic passage through the densely landscaped sloped territory and connecting the two paths was the project's main idea.
Project Duration
The project competition was held in February 2019 announcing the winner on March 12th. The design is under development for construction which is scheduled to start in March 2021 and completed in February 2022.
Operation Flow
Considering the location of the project, the gallery's role as infusing the art in the daily life of the viewers will be as crucial as exhibiting the artwork. Through the flowing connection of the interior and exterior spaces and the organic relationship between the spaces, we expect to provide everyday artistic experiences to visitors and those passing by.
