2013 Eological Park at Frederiksberg in CopenhagenThe project covers the north area of Frederiksberg, known as Nordre Fasanvej. An el-evated motorway (Ring-road) is tackled with Ecological park due to the fact that the place is defined in need to adopt climate change such as flood risk as well as dull environment as a barrier between north and south. The place is addressed with flood risk, everyday ecological practices and biodiversity in the urban environment.

2008-2012 Art Works‘Pantheon’ is my representative work in my artist life. The making process could be interpreted how I work with various materials and methods. It includes the process from inspiration of works to visualization through research, sketches, and etc.

2014 DongSan-Heal Holiday Estate at Anheung in Hoengseong-gun (South Korea)The project was designed based on the client’s belief and requirements. It was planned by given masterplan from a client to create perspective view and detailed design of the site including 38 holiday houses or facilities.

Rural Development 2014Rural circumstance in the Uk is far from my expectation because of different criteria in terms of standard of living between what I have seen countryside from my country (Re-public of Korea) or from media such as developing countries. Nevertheless, rural problems have been shown with similar consequences under the phenomenon of urbanization. It seems that rural development is inevitable to make balanced development that could re-solve social issues that have been caused through modernization.

Interior Design 2007-2008I designed six retails (2007-2010) such as clothing shop, office, and restaurant. This port-folio includes two project of them. I started with conceptual drawing to imagine how it looks like with discussion. After that I managed all process in the place.

Study of Furniture through world famous designers 2014 Illustration, Furniture/Interior

The illustration is begun to study what furniture has made and designers who create them. I try to display a designer’s furniture in a room. Additionally, small pictures focus on

the furniture.

ARNE JACobSEN’S fURNITURE WITHIN my fUTURE Room CARLo moLLINo’S fURNITURE WITHIN my fURTURE Room

Arne Jacobsen’s furniture is drawn in a picture and three more pictures within separated composition.

Carlo Mollino’s furniture is drawn in a picture and two more pictures within separated composition.

I started to draw pictures in order to understand what furniture has been made through history. Fur-niture is one of my favourite objects to get inspira-tion from my routine. I believe that every ‘structure’ is related each other amongst Architecture and Fur-niture even our city all over around us.

Particulalry, 35,000 species of birds and seals inhabit in Coquet Island. Amble is also the famous place at fishing. After the closure of catering coals industry.

“a” tRIanGle touR

“A” Triangle Tour comes from the initial of three towns’ name, Amble, Alnwick, and Al-nmouth, they are next to each other. People could take part in the tour within one or two days tour to appreciate each town’s attractions. This dia-gram explains the tour what people can expect and what Amble needs for. The idea could be supported by York-shire Sculpture Triangle as a benchmarking.

amble’s attractions and things to Do

Having fresh, healthy food / enjoying water sports, Aquarium and relaxing on the beach / walking seaside within beautiful nature and Art works / enjoying shopping and playground

Numerous things to do in Amble are based in the very thing that Amble is almost surrounded with water. Because of that, Watersports, sailing, canoeing, kayaking and fishing are all available with excellent facilities including the Marina, Har-bour, Angling Centre and many clubs. The Coquet Island is lo-cated jsut a mile from the coast and it is an RSPB designated site of special scientific interest.

Marshland Ecosystem1. Dissipates Energy: during heavy rainfall, the wetland reduce stream speed and absorbs water as a natural sponge

2. Improve water quarlity: the wetland purifiy water, filtering out sediments and contaminants

3. Provide fish and wildlife habitat

4. Provide recreation, open space and aesthetic value

5. Reduce flooding: the wet land soak up and store energy and slowly release into streams

base materialThe fundamental medium that was used in this project is creased books. These books had formative-ness in themselves that I chose to reproduce greek pillar using them.

description

I often tell people stories about limita-tions of mankind. These stories are well illustrated in the traces left behind from the ancient Greek civilization- a once glorious civilization that ended in vain. When I realize my own limits, I also realize my potentials. Such realiza-tion brings confidence back in me to contribute values into our society.
