International Competition for Gyeonggi-do Jeongok Prehistory Museum,
3rd Prize

 
    The project is the 3rd prized proposal for the international competition, Gyeonggi-do Jeongok Prehistory Museum. The project proposes to transform the site into an interpark for visitors and a residents in the center of masterplan which includes Prehistoric Site, Outdoor Exhibition, Amusement Park, History Culture Village.
The building will be a landmark or a destination engaging passengers without spoiling the existing landscape. In order to minimize environmental impacts and respecting local land features, a volume of the building follows contour of the land with row layer. By wrapping the existing natural landscape in a sequence of terraced museum, covered with light coming through the horizontally spreading translucent roof, the building, the site, and visitors will blend in single flow without an intensive-physical boundary. The visitors will experience diverse activities in the open landscape which is gently divided by short vertical intervals and slopes.
