site plan of High Clothing-technology Center

The land is located at the center of Dongdaemun clothing trade area, a mecca for design and fashion industries, and it has a geometric shape with a width of 33 meters at maximum and a 6-meter difference of floor level at the highest. The main focus of its floor planning was on setting up an axis of planning considering the shape of the land and inducing the flows of pedestrian and vehicle traffic that adapt to the axis of the land.

Taking into account frequent shipment of commodities characteristic of companies settling in the center, business convenience was increased and overlap with the flow of pedestrian traffic was prevented by creating a separated unloading area and a parking lot. Support facilities intensively planned near the entrance are expected to secure recognition and enable efficient work performance by boosting the identity of the High Clothing-Technology Center. Moreover, rational use of space was realized through the organic connection of indoor facilities with outdoor facilities .

Mass design was motivated by a skein that is used for clothing and monotony was evaded and openness was secured through the process of disconnection, filling and emptying. The elevation that harmonizes transparent glass with aluminum panels, added with point colors, brought into being vitality and vigor all around the building, and it goes well with Dongdaemun Design Plaza across the road.
