Ulsan 'Bangeo·Yangjeong' Youth Hope Housing Design Competition Winners Selected
Youth Hope Housing Supply Project Progressing Smoothly
Plan to Supply 36 Units in Bang-eo-dong and 18 Units in Yangjeong-dong
Ulsan City has selected the winning design for the Youth Hope Housing architectural design competition.
On the 23rd, Ulsan City announced that the final winning entry for the architectural design competition for the construction of Youth Hope Housing in Bang-eo-dong and Yangjeong-dong was submitted by MPT Comprehensive Architects Office Co., Ltd. (CEO Kim Jin-han) and Wave Architects Office (Director Park Young-gyo).
The winning design was planned to ensure privacy by designing most entrances so that the bedroom space is not directly visible when the door is open. In the case of the Youth Hope Housing in Yangjeong-dong, all units were arranged facing south to maximize ventilation, lighting, and sunlight exposure.
Additionally, considering the lifestyle of young people, the design includes a spacious shared kitchen equipped with various cooking utensils, a shared office where online video viewing is possible for cultural communication and exchange, and a rooftop healing space that enhances rest and interaction, receiving excellent evaluations for providing a pleasant living environment.
Ulsan City plans to supply 36 Youth Hope Housing units with a total floor area of 1,815㎡, consisting of one basement floor and five above-ground floors in Bang-eo-dong, Dong-gu, and 18 Youth Hope Housing units with a total floor area of 612㎡ and five above-ground floors in Yangjeong-dong, Buk-gu, with a budget of 12.3 billion KRW by May 2026.
An official from Ulsan City said, “We hope that the supply of Youth Hope Housing will allow young people to focus on their studies and work without worrying about housing,” adding, “Furthermore, we hope that more young people will settle in Ulsan and grow together with the city.”
