판교 한국테크노돔 R&D 통합센터  세계적 포스터+파트너스 설계 누구나 와보고 싶은 곳    대전 소재 한국테크노돔의 R&D 통합센터인 한국테크노돔 프로젝트 기간 동안 개발된 성공적인 파트너십을 바탕으로 포스터+파트너스는 서울 외곽에 위치한 판교 소재 한국 본사 건물을 설계했다. 새 건물은 미래를 내다보며 유연한 근무 스타일을 지원하는 역동적인 사무실 환경을 만들고자 하는 한국 정부의 염원을 상징하는 여러 테마를 수용하고 있다. 그 건물은 진보적인 기업 문화를 주입하려는 회사의 지속적인 노력에 변화의 촉매제 역할을 한다. 포스터 + 파트너의 디자인 책임자인 데이비드 넬슨은 다음과 같이 말했다. 그는 "한국이 필요로 하는 일터, 새로운 평등주의 직장문화를 만들고자 하는 욕구에 맞춘 일터를 디자인하고 싶었다. 최고위급 임원들은 각기 다른 레벨의 팀과 함께 배치되어 핵심 구성원들 간의 상호작용을 촉진하고 회사 내에서 보다 유동적인 정보 흐름을 가능하게 한다. 개방형 작업공간은 서로 다른 팀 간의 협업을 촉진하고 소규모 그룹과 개인에게 사적인 공간을 제공하도록 유기적으로 구성할 수 있으며, 이 모든 것을 통해 건물은 시간이 지남에 따라 변화하는 요구에 적응할 수 있으며, 기술이 발전함에 따라 새로운 작업방식을 통합할 수 있다." 뉴테크노플렉스에는 한국 기업이 대표하는 엔지니어링의 우수성을 반영해 글로벌 브랜드로서의 한국발전을 반영하고 있다. 10층짜리 건물에는 175석 규모의 강당이 있는 첨단 비즈니스 센터와 함께 한국 사무소와 그 자회사가 입주해 있다. 바닥판은 중앙 아트리움 주위를 나선형으로 감싸고 있어 건물 전체에 서로 다른 높이의 공간을 만든다. 동적 볼륨은 직원 상호작용을 장려하는 동시에 건물의 심장 깊숙이 자연광을 들어오게 하는 동시에 다양한 레벨에 걸쳐 시각적 연결을 생성한다. via youtube 황기철 콘페이퍼 에디터 Ki Chul Hwang Conpaper editor curator

Building on the successful partnership developed during the Hankook Technodome project – the company’s integrated R&D centre in Daejeon – Foster + Partners has designed Hankook’s new headquarters in Pangyo, on the outskirts of Seoul.

The new building embraces several themes that are symbolic of Hankook’s desire to create a dynamic office environment that supports flexible working styles, as the company looks towards the future. The building serves as a catalyst for change for the company’s ongoing efforts to inculcate a progressive corporate culture.

David Nelson, Head of Design, Foster + Partners, said: “We wanted to design a workplace that was tailored to Hankook’s needs and their desire to create a new egalitarian working culture. Top-level executives are co-located with their teams on different levels, which promotes interaction between the key members, and enables a more fluid flow of information within the company. The open-plan workspaces can be configured organically to promote collaboration between different teams and also provide private space for smaller groups and individuals, all of this enables the building to adapt to changing needs over time, incorporating new ways of working as technologies evolve.”

 

The new Technoplex reflects Hankook’s development as a global brand, echoing the excellence in engineering that the company represents. The ten-storey building houses the Hankook offices and its subsidiaries, alongside a state-of-the-art business centre with a 175-seat auditorium. The floorplates spiral around a central atrium, creating spaces of differing heights throughout the building. The dynamic volume generates visual connections across the different levels encouraging staff interaction, while also letting natural light deep into the heart of the building.

 

Nigel Dancey, Head of Studio, Foster + Partners, commented: “The building wholeheartedly embraces the principles of biophilia to create a workplace that is focussed on wellbeing and sustainability. Indoor trees define breakout spaces on each level with greenery travelling to the top of the building. The floorplates spiral around a central atrium, creating spaces of differing heights throughout the building. The dynamic volume generates visual connections across the different levels encouraging staff interaction, while also letting natural light deep into the heart of the building.”

 

The atrium contains a large site-specific art installation by Jason Bruges Studio called, ‘Digital Phyllotaxy’. Visitors experience the immersive media artwork as they ascend to the main reception via an escalator. The artwork creates a visual metaphor for a tree canopy, bringing a sense of the outdoors inside the building. Travelling up through the spatial artwork, they experience evolving volumes of light, shadow and colour. The reception space includes another triptych media artwork by the same studio called, ‘Dynamic Tread’.

 

The building façades have been carefully designed to optimise the use of natural light. Glass louvres are wrapped around the building at varying levels of density to moderate the indoor light levels. For instance, the communal and social areas are designed to be brighter and more relaxed, while the workspaces have stricter controls on light levels complemented by an intelligent artificial lighting system. It this way, the façade responds to the activities taking place inside the building, also giving the building a unique visual identity.

Through its warm material palette, naturally lit spaces, and flexible workspaces, the design creates a positive experience for the company staff. Nature plays a vital role in the success of the workplace; indoor trees define breakout spaces on each level with greenery travelling to the top of the building. Overlooking the central atrium, they are designed for informal meetings and short breaks, while the open-plan workspaces can be configured organically to promote collaboration between different teams. The flexible layouts enable the building to adapt to changing needs over time, incorporating new ways of working as technologies evolve.

Iwan Jones, Partner, Foster + Partners, added: “The project builds on the success of the Hankook Technodome that we designed earlier, creating two distinctly different buildings bound together by key themes that are common to both buildings. The Hankook Technoplex seeks to bring new levels of spatial openness and transparency throughout the interior, creating three-dimensional visual connections between floorplates and to the outside. Through its warm material palette, naturally lit spaces, and flexible workspaces, the design aims to create a positive experience for the company staff.”

To break down the traditional hierarchical barriers and create a more egalitarian workplace, top-level executives are co-located with their teams on different levels. An executive business lounge on the top floor provides a space for company executives to meet informally, which promotes interaction between the key members, and enables a more fluid flow of information within the company. The building is sandwiched by social spaces, with the healthcare facilities, staff restaurant, and gymnasium in the first basement, and a landscaped terrace and a rest area for employees on the roof. The roof garden takes advantage of unobstructed views across the Pangyo area, offering a unique space for company events.

Heidi Han, Associate, Foster + Partners, said: “The Hankook Technoplex is the product of an incredible collaboration between the client, consultants and the design team. Inspired by the CEO’s vision for the Hankook’s work ethic, we have created a new symbol for the company that reflects its position as an advanced technology company that attracts some of the best talent in the world.”
