Junghee Lee · CLIENT: 2m2 Architects

Junghee Lee tried to divide a large floor space into several small spaces. For this purpose, the architect set the basic direction as a skip floor, and it is a two-story building, but it actually became a space of four floors up to the outside deck on the roof. On the same floor, exposed concrete wall was exposed in the middle and divided it into two parts again. The floor and ceiling finish produces contrasting effects. in addition, by installing a skylight, natural light enters the room during the daytime.

Inspiration
The site where the project was carried out is Daegu City which is located on the side road of the old section of the city. In 2010, as the singer Kim Gwangseok's streets were built around, it became a popular neighborhood where many young people visited on the weekends.
we designed a building that does not stand out too much compared to the neighboring buildings, but has its distinct features and can be combined with the neighborhood atmosphere with 1/3 of the legal maximum possible size.
