The House of Prajna, Gwacheon-si, South Korea

24/1/2019

The architect (Hyoungnam Lim, Eunjoo Roh in studio_GAON) writes: The House of Prajna seems like a vessel heading for the woods, embraced by the forest, with the pentagon shape of building site reminding of that of ship. On the bow of ship shape, a persimmon tree over hundred year old branches its arms toward the large sky with hollowed trunk. Although this house is a result of intentional design, I feel like it is already been completed by thousands of interactions of invisible components. Every time I visit, I feel like appreciating the work of someone else’s.  

The house is located in Gwacheon near Seoul. Gwacheon has been playing a role of government city, and praised for an ideal place for living. Other houses in the district, line along the street a bit apart from each other, and the surrounding woods enclave the town like a blanket. The site feels cozy. 

At first, the owner of the house, a middle aged couple, said in tranquil but clear tone that they have four family members, have a dog and want to have a separate workroom distinctive from the living place. They bought the land ten years ago, and other lots around the site have been already filled out. Lastly, they wanted to preserve the awesome persimmon tree.

South Korea is the place to be a professional gamer. Well, most of the top ranked players in all of Esports come from South Korea. I do not know how they do it, but they are just amazing at it. I will try to go and train myself there. I know that it is going to be a huge risk for me, but I am willing to do it. I will try my hardest to be the best player that I can be.
