The Seoya Middle and High School are located in the middle of Hapdeok, Chungcheongnam-do, Korea, surrounded by farmland. Since fifteen years ago, I have been working on the dormitory, gymnasium, classroom, and the main building’s remodeling, and the principal and I became friends and understood each other well. The task at the time was to expand the toilet directly connected to each floor of the main building in lieu of the toilet constructed in a separate building. The only location that could be extended was the slope leading to the back of the main building. Although it is an extension behind the main building, I thought it could become a landmark for the school as it is located at the entrance leading from the village and the roadside.
In front of the basement floor, where the watertank and pump were installed, there was a slope to be removed. The slope was not removed, however, and the cement long-brick wall from the third floor was folded and transformed into an inclined base. The entire mass became a special object thanks to the inclined base decorated with bricks. (written by Lim Dokyun / edited by Bang Yukyung)
