The award-winning Ssanglim Mutual Growth Exchange Center features an open structure centered around a spacious first floor, facilitating natural interaction among residents. The building employs a lightweight exterior that reflects the surrounding landscape, and its design minimizes the boundary between the courtyard and the interior, which was highly praised.


The other award-winning project, the Seongsan Harmony Center, was lauded by the judges for its rational layout that ensures both a sense of openness-through a viewing terrace and outdoor rest area-and a strong presence and symbolism facing the main road.


The Ssanglim Mutual Growth Exchange Center was completed in March this year, while the Seongsan Harmony Center is currently finalizing its construction permit process and is scheduled to begin construction in November.



Governor Lee Namcheol stated, "These two centers will go beyond simple administrative facilities to become community hubs that connect residents' lives and culture," adding, "As public buildings with complex, community-oriented functions, they will inject new vitality into the local community."
