A Sustainable Design Method of Daesun Flour Mill Renovation - Focused on Relationship between Structure, Environment, and Materials

Abstract

As Korea’s manufacturing industry declined and Seoul’s urban expansion accelerated, factories that controlled major industries were developed in various forms. In the Yeongdeungpo area, most industrial facilities were redeveloped into large-scale commercial facilities. However, among these, the Daesun flour mill is the only industrial heritage facility that has preserved its historical and cultural value while conserving its shape. This study focuses on the Daesun flour mill, recently registered as Seoul excellent building asset No. 2. Consequently, it was found that the design was implemented responsively to the changed usage of the space. Accordingly, different usage methods were proposed. It was found that differentiated design methods are being proposed, oriented toward structural stability, environmental improvement, and a relationship of dialog with common materials. It has value as a sustainable design methodology. It is not a space where the memories of the past have been lost, but it can become a space that aims for a new future by further amplifying the power of the space created by the past and the charm of the present. From this perspective, the significance of this study is revealed.
