Assembled Void, Library at New York Korea Center
Library
Since the library was requested to be designed as a Korean cultural venue located in an aboard city of New York, the design intended to blend archaic forms of Korean traditional space with a minimalistic and contemporary aesthetic which insights a biophilic space. It also envisions a new type of small-scale community library that encapsulates the unique beauty of K-space achieved by revisiting traditional Korean architecture and applying its principles to the spatial design. This project showcases how cultural heritage can be preserved and celebrated through thoughtful and contemporary design, creating a unique and enriching environment.
