Querencia Neighborhood Facility / L'eau Design + Dongjin Kim
hope you're living in places that represent you.
Today was full of beautiful coincidences, a series of meaningful signs that relate to the day's project. After a long time tripped in my house at a glass skyscraper, today, I visited a neighborhood. I walked through its alleys, I took a photo of an old byzantine wall and I had a coffee on a bench in front of a mosque. I grew up in a neighborhood, my soul and my spirit are familiar with its intimate relations. living in a Metropol could make us forget but this pandemic helped us reach out to our inner child.
Well, It's getting personal, let's get into the project.
If you're wondering what has my brief trip to do in today's project, well, it is a community center; It is a place where all the residents of the neighborhood are welcomed. Where they can communicate and fulfill their cultural habits.
The Querencia neighborhood facility takes place in Seoul city. In a district, that homes skyscrapers in apparent but sometimes it hides in a chattered neighborhoods that survived gentrified operations.
Querencia is in one of these neighborhoods. The site takes place among mid-rise residential buildings.
The architect's main concept is inspired by the local small bookstores that popped up after the invested bookstores were filled with self-development books. those bookstores culturally protected their city and block gentrification. The community center held in different cultural spaces that hope to work as the local bookstore along with the residents to protect their city.
