Gwanak-gu Installs Autonomous Building Number Plates on Public Buildings

Improving Visibility and Urban Aesthetics by Installing Building Number Plates Suited to Building Characteristics... Installing Solar-Powered LED Building Number Plates in Nighttime Vulnerable Areas for Rapid Emergency Response

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gwanak-gu (Mayor Park Junhee) has installed autonomous building number plates on 99 public buildings used by residents to improve urban aesthetics and visibility.

Autonomous building number plates refer to building number plates that building owners or managers produce and install with free designs according to the characteristics of the building.

The existing building number plates installed on public buildings had become unsightly due to long-term aging and damage, making it difficult to distinguish addresses and causing inconvenience to users, thus failing to serve their purpose.

To improve this, the district has newly designed building number plates that harmonize well with buildings and the urban environment, installing them on public buildings such as welfare facilities, schools, public restrooms, and government offices in the area.

Various Gang Gam-chan characters are installed at government offices, dynamic figures representing people exercising at sports facilities, and building number plates featuring the shape of schools at schools, making them easily recognizable by anyone.

Since the project began in 2017, a total of 277 buildings have been installed and completed to date.

In particular, solar-powered LED building number plates have been installed in public restrooms located in areas vulnerable at night, allowing people to accurately inform their location using the address on the building number plate in case of emergencies.

The district plans to survey all public buildings this year and complete the installation of autonomous building number plates, and will continuously promote the installation of autonomous building number plates on private buildings by informing the architectural association, building owners, and others to further improve urban aesthetics.

Mayor Park Junhee stated, “By installing autonomous building number plates on public facilities, we will enhance urban aesthetics and visibility, making it easier and more convenient for visiting residents to use them, and we will further expand the installation of autonomous building number plates.”
