Space Information
Jinju City and Innocity are separated into two regions respectively by Namgang(River) and Yeongcheongang(River). The green zone system straddling the entire Innocity borders the southwest of the site, which is on the center of the western side of Yeongcheongang. The target site is located on the node of the previous public building area and the residential area, and is influenced by a radial urban axis.
In the form of a square open on one side, the site plan appears as if it embraces Jinju and its citizens with two arms, and thus gives a friendly and welcoming image from all angles. The concept of ‘Void’ and ‘Open’ was introduced for communication between spaces so that the view is not blocked by connected mass.
The zoning of facilities is largely divided into two according to user groups; the private areas are occupied by administrators and staff, while the public areas by visitors and those of auditorium who use outdoor sports facilities.
Namgang and Jinju silk are chosen as representative elements for the elevation. To represent trust and integrity, which are the virtue of National Pension Service, we added uprightness of bamboo trees and Korean traditional paper and expressed moderated and refined beauty.
