Rapid Response to the Trend
Latest medical facilities are changing their identity from a function-centered facility to a patient-centered healing space, and they are demanding a new type of space which can accommodate advancing technology and newly emerged digital devices. Moreover, due to the recent outbreak of contagious diseases, more tightened legal regulations that affect healthcare facility design are being implemented. Therefore, healthcare facilities should be prepared always to respond to varied changes. SAMOO has database in preparation for such situations as well as knowhow that allows it to suggest an optimized solution based on its vast design experience even in a very new circumstance.

Mixed-Use
-
Overview
A large scale mixed-use development works as an icon in developing cities, and with its compound programs organized under the same roof to complement each other, it creates a three-dimensional urban structure. Also, as it gives new functions and energy to a relatively deteriorated old downtown area, it revitalizes the stagnant local economy.

Mixed-use complex development
A mixed-use complex development requires an efficient land use strategy which can organically combine more than three programs among various programs such as commercial, office, residential, culture and entertainment. At this time, along with a stereoscopic consideration of various aspects in terms of time, space, symbolism and feasibility as well as a measure for physical and functional integration of different components, it needs a coherent development plan, procedural implementation and specialized design strategy based on a wide range of experience and know-how for mixed-use projects.
-
Enhanced public function
Although the high rate land use is inevitable for the mixed-use development, it is necessary to prevent the underdeveloped area and to maintain a pleasant urban space. In this regard, their design should reflect such purpose by providing a maximized public open space, a network with neighboring parks that improves the quality of life and restores urban ecosystem, and a refined traffic planning that enhances accessibility from all directions.

Inspirational Research Design
The recently expanded research scope and diversified studies have called for creating a versatile multidisciplinary research environment. And the development of research equipment and the expansion of public space are underlining the importance of flexibility and efficiency in space use. Such circumstance demands a new type of space which is differentiated from conventional function-centered facilities and enables multi-dimensional communication among research groups. Using its matured capabilities that have been accumulated throughout various architectural design projects. SAMOO analyzes and studies research environments to design a space which doesn’t only provide functional supports but also provokes communication and creativity.

Continuous research on housing
Developing various housing types which can accommodate different social groups and lifestyles altogether relates to designing customized facility or space for an aging society with low birth rate. The change in average number of people per household due to the proliferation of nuclear families and single-elderly households proves the necessity of housing type development which can embrace such life changes. And, developing new housing type as alternatives to deteriorated detached and apartment housings is also an important task for future housing design. In the context of urban regeneration and old downtown revitalization, ‘low-rise high density multifamily housings’ can be regarded as one of the promising solutions among other redevelopment, reconstruction and remodeling schemes.

Collaboration with experts
Creating a pleasant living environment entails not only the hands of an architect. A residential design must assess all relevant aspects including society, city, environment and culture. This means it requires a close collaboration among decision makers, architects, urban planners and project owners. SAMOO’s pursuit of a humane and sustainable settlement environment is being intensified throughout its collaboration network while producing decent outcomes. Through active communication with external housing design experts and human resource development programs encouraging participation in research activities, SAMOO as a residential project specialist is refining its flexible and creative brilliance.

Redundant System Design & Mission Critical Design
Unlike other buildings, data centers are unique in that they can withstand any adverse conditions. It reflects the essential requirements for redundant system, such as applying the highest level of earthquake resistance, redundant power in case of a power outage, power supply through emergency generators even if the power supply is interrupted, and redundant equipment and piping to cool the servers.
In order to solve these various conditions and design the optimal space, we would like to review interference in real time with BIM design and minimize errors during construction with excellent consistency with drawings. -
Energy Conservation and Sustainability
In addition, data centers are power-hungry buildings, and most of that power is used to run servers. How much power can be reduced by equipment and other facilities to cool the heat generated by the servers is a critical factor in designing an efficient and economical data center.
Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) is the most widely used metric in Republic of Korea and abroad to measure the power usage efficiency of a data center: the total amount of power used by the data center is divided by the total amount of power of the data center's IT equipment, and the lower the number, the more efficient the data center is.
According to the Uptime Institute, the average global data center PUE was 2.5 in 2006, but recently, various technologies are being applied to achieve an average PUE of 1.3 or less.
SAMOO proposes an efficient alternative through a multifaceted technical review for sustainable data center design.
