Regeneration projects are a crucial tool in helping cities improve their heritage value. This includes the rehabilitation of industrial facilities, a practical solution to increasing urban sustainability. Seoul's Mapo Cultural Depot, launched in 2017 after and international competition in 2014, is a representative model of such industrial heritages. This winning design focused on rehabilitating the site throughout both the design and construction periods, valuing preservation over new construction even at the initial stages of the competition. In this study, we examine the Mapo Cultural Depot in terms of its balance with the natural surroundings, architectural tectonics, and emotional remnants. We argue that its physical appearance, landscaping, and tectonic relation, composed of a specific spectrum of time accumulation, help people experience a sense of collective memory. In this way, a sense of time and place are embedded in materiality and important to consider when moving toward urban sustainability. Our findings have implications for a new perspective on concrete regeneration strategies.rebuilding it as a cultural complex space in 2000 [2]. In such a way, urban design is one of the most important tools for creating a sustainable society.However, urban design cannot be approached with a universal methodology. Instead, designers and city planners must consider a region's unique culture and characteristics. One example of such industrial revitalization done with an area's unique identity in mind is the Mapo Cultural Depot in Seoul. The building shows evidence of a variety of historical identities, and the land on which it sits has transitioned from a naturally hilly area on the Mt. Maebong Ridge, to a petroleum reservoir, to vacant land, and finally to the cultural park that is its present day incarnation.The logic that approached this Mapo Depot (Figure 1) as a research subject is as follows. This is also a factor that strengthens the heritage value and unique identity of the facility. (1) The site is accumulated by laminating several time zones, and (2) the facilities that reveal each time zone are preserved under the protection and policy of the government. (3) It is a project that clarifies the big direction of regeneration by linking this with the current time zone as the main design strategy.
With the decrease in the demand for large-scale apartments as a result of an aging society and a decrease in population, there has been an increase in vacant houses due to a supply that exceeds the projected demands. As a method of urban regeneration in rural areas and activation of citizen communities, the utilization of vacant houses has become one of the ways to promote a new lifestyle, active movement for citizen participation, and business model for long-term revitalization. This study aims to uncover and examine the major causes and factors behind the upswing in vacant houses. We investigated the current state of vacant houses, the recent policies concerning them, and the types of vacant houses in Korea's Gyeonggi province. We then categorized and analyzed the causes of houses being vacant, their types, and the methods of utilizing them under different local conditions in order to understand the efficient processes and strategies for their utilization. The results showed that an excess of building construction (especially recent construction permits), the number of recipients of the national basic livelihood scheme, and the number of elderly people showed the strongest correlation with vacant houses. of 22fishing areas, or the outskirts of cities. The number of vacant houses when compared by region is remarkably high in urban regions. This is the result of unsold apartments from oversupply, cancellation of new downtown regions in old city centers, changes in the city's industrial structure, a shift in central administration, etc.To systematically manage and use the increasing number of vacant houses, a long-term system must be established and supported by a shift in social awareness. In Korea, 20 different regions throughout the country enacted regulations for vacant house management in response to this increase [3]. Vacant house management does not necessarily require massive investment, nor does it need to involve blind demolition; rather, it is about precise management and usage. Objective standards that select and govern demolition, management, and usage-instead of blind demolition-must be administratively established at a provincial level in such a way that regional attributes are enhanced for each type of vacant house and can be used as regional assets.This study examines the cause of vacant houses and their usage plans in Gyeonggi Province in Korea by looking at actual cases steadily arising from population decrease and an aging society. We will also deduce political implications and practical measures by analyzing the supporting details and related subjects. We will subsequently find ways to use the increasing number of vacant houses through strategies that create spaces for the local community, which would enable the continual growth and independence of the region. Furthermore, we will present a detailed methodology that validates regional resources.
The purpose of this study is to explore the possibilities of architectural typology as a design methodology in contemporary architecture. Thus far, type and typology has been considered purely theoretical or conventional methodology in practice. The use of 'type' as a tool in the design process has led to 'typification' of design that discourages the emergence of new formal structures. Despite the criticism of traditional typology, the works of FOA provide a clue to redefining and reinterpreting the subject of typology, which enables us to operate appropriately in constantly shifting environments. The transformations inherent in FOA's works include the following features. Firstly, the concept of type as an imitable precedent was replaced by an abstract and topological structure of form. Secondly, repetition and reproduction of types were complemented by the protocol of evolution and proliferation. Lastly, the traditional classification system based on the relationships between specific form and function turned into a hierarchical classification system of spatial structure by which formal diversity can be acquired.
Abstract:In the diverse research on Multi Commercial Complexes, rather than a technical and statistical approach, it is now time to focus on the quality of urban sustainability based on the daily experience of urban residents. Therefore, this research proposes a mechanism for making a sophisticated adjustment to the "Ground", defined as the empty space of a designated site under the existing urban conditions, towards planning the sustainability of a Multi-Commercial Complex. For the first step, the elements of urban sustainability were extracted from the Figure-Ground Theory and the urban theory of Aldo Rossi and Kevin Lynch, respectively. The relationship between the methodology, which deals with the concept of "Ground" and its sustainable urban status, is analyzed using five selected multi-commercial complex cases. We derived the characteristics of "Ground" represented in each case, including "Responding", "Contextual", "Historical", "Co-existing", and "Hybrid" sustainability. In each case, the "Ground" was treated as a crucial common issue. In this paper, we suggest that preferential consideration and sensitive design of the "Ground" are crucial for maintaining urban sustainability in the planning of Multi Commercial Complexes. This paper can thus contribute to the body of research on urban sustainability along with existing technical studies.
Since the surface immunogenic protein (Sip) of group B streptococcus was identified, it's immunogenicity and its potential as a universal vaccine candidate has been evaluated extensively. We developed recombinant Sip protein and used it for monoclonal antibody generation to develop immunochromatographic test kit for GBS detection. The test of bacteria and culture media revealed the correlation between Sip protein expression and diagnosis discrepancy, which has never been reported. Furthermore, not only the surface accessibility of the Sip protein may vary from strains or serotypes; the secretion level of Sip protein may also vary.
