SPACE December 2024 (No. 685)
Montage Hannam is a CF production set and office building located in the residential area of Hannam-dong, with two basement levels and four above ground floors. This project relocates the typically suburban, flexible set studios to the centre of Seoul, stacking them vertically. Usually, in commercial facilities, the circulation is based on the user’s purpose and movement, with the width and height of spaces depending on human scale and construction costs, and the position and size of windows following human eye level. However, in Montage Hannam, the focus is on the ‘camera’ instead of ‘people’. The entire flow of movement and visual perspectives, from the road approaching the building to the main entrance and through all floors, the zoning of each floor, and the size and characteristics of each space are planned around the camera. Key elements include the range of the video according to the camera’s angle and movement, the inflow and blocking of light, the depth of space, and changes of material. These elements form the framework of the project. The changes in floor and ceiling finishes and heights, the restrained or exaggerated size and position of windows, and the form and background of layers extending from internal spaces provide a CF-like fantasy that is not common in typical set designs.
