[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Sinan-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Park Woo-ryang) has been designating unique colors for each village when granting building permits for newly constructed or renovated buildings since revising the landscape ordinance enforcement rules on September 9 last year.

According to the county on the 8th, as the Purple Islands of Banwol and Bakji Islands in Anjwa-myeon have become widely known as famous domestic and international tourist destinations, the color landscape project is being gradually expanded. Seondo in Jido-eup has been designated yellow with daffodils as the background, and Byeongpungdo in Jeungdo-myeon and Imja-myeon have been designated vermilion-colored roofs for buildings with cockscomb and red plum blossoms as themes, harmonizing with the surrounding environment and creating a unified architectural landscape to provide tourists with new attractions.

Also, since most of the zinc panel colors widely used as building exterior materials are supplied in black tones, to resolve the inconvenience to building owners caused by color designation, new colors of zinc panels (sky blue, cobalt blue) that were not previously produced have been manufactured and supplied with the cooperation of Haesung Panel Co., Ltd. in Gwangju Metropolitan City, solving the problem of building material selection.

Governor Park Woo-ryang stated, “If newly constructed or renovated buildings are built in unified colors every year, they will naturally be utilized as Sinan-gun’s tourism resources starting from the next 10 years.”
