Description
The creation and extinction of most architecture naturally occurs due to its location or functions growing obsolete. Buildings renowned of their historical value are given an extension to their lifespans through preservation or restoration work.
Architecture worth restoring represents a memory of the city, or of the region. If the restoration of the façade of a building is to extend the lifespan of the actual physical memory of the building that lives in the minds of the people, then the restoration of the interior is to rebuild the ‘memory of the life’ accumulated in the passing of history.
In this sense, the significance of interior architecture is immense in considering the preservation or restoration of the architecture within its historical value. Going beyond being a simple temporal memory, the interior is a space in which people interact, breathe and touch. It’s also a direct, non-mediated space that can recognize and extend the architectural worth through a closer contact.
With its 1,000 years of history, Korea has gone through immense changes during the last 10 years, and so has the dynamic city of Seoul, its capital.
In looking at significant buildings in Seoul that had to undergo turbulent periods of changes, we are facing both the increased importance in the notion of their subsistence and the concern for their indiscriminate extinction. For their restoration and preservation, there is a need for a new approach from the standpoint of interior architecture, and we are proposing a subject matter appropriate for the demands of today’s generations.
A new era in history will unfold according to the new paradigm that we are suggesting – in terms of how buildings can keep, in the present, their intrinsic value while conveying the lifestyle of the past, as well as in the future, which will reflect our present life.
