A space where visitors can rest and reflect by themselves, or enjoy the company of others while socializing and sitting together. This dual space features two areas that are connected but separated simultaneously, while the passage serves as a transition area. The space shows an appreciation towards simple block forms that were repeated throughout, blending the boundaries of wall, ceiling, and seating elements. The use of ordinary materials with natural tones such as plaster and wood helped realize this design. The untreated plaster offers a genuine, raw texture while wood adds a touch of warmth and coziness.
