Dong-A Univ. Lecture Complex The Bumin Campus of Dong-A University aims to combine nature and urban centers, history and future, and the university and the community. Located in a site of architectural legacy which used to house the old provincial office, the courthouse and the prosecutors’ office, the new campus is designed as a space of openness, drawing in the surrounding landscape and life without overpowering the historic legacy.

The campus will also provide advanced education and research spaces for the students and the professors, cultural and refreshing spaces for the community. The Bumin Campus of Dong-A University adapts to the axis and the slope of the land, designed to accentuate the ‘frontness’of the main entrance. While creating an advanced image, the transparent curtain walls function also as the background embracing the architectural legacy which will be used as a museum.
