Our Wall
The wall of the hanok gives stables yet graceful beauty because it is divided into sections vertically and horizontally around the columns and beams of the window and the door.
It describes the modern aesthetic value by painting the traditional five colors over it, although it is a bit artificial, instead of the rugged white plastered wall.
Our Gate
The window and door of the Hanok distinguish the space of people and that of nature instead of the Confucian characteristics dividing the space according to the social status and gender of people living in the structure. The exquisite combination of changhoji (traditional Korean paper made from mulberry bark) and a lattice window not only has architectonic beauty from the coexistence of the line and the face and shows the beauty of space. It is as elegant as the cold abstract of Mondrian.
This work trims the door frame boldly and emphasizes the line and face of it. Moreover, I infuse life into it by painting with our five colors. I composed it to go well with the modern sense.
