Pyeongseong-ri Warehouse

Pyeongseong-ri Warehouse is a facility designed for both storage and use by children attending a forest preschool. Working at Dongsidae Architecture, Seyeong Choi led the project from the construction documentation stage and produced the complete set of construction drawings. Design and construction-stage work proceeded under the review and approval of principal JUNGGU KIM.

Seyeong Choi was not involved in the permitting stage. Permit drawings were used as references for the existing proposal and site conditions. This page focuses on the construction drawings and models produced directly by Seyeong Choi, together with records of construction progress.

Construction documentation developed the relationship between the sloping site and floor levels, the interior spaces and external access routes. Plans and sections define two main rooms, a bathroom, a central passage and external stairs.

As the facility accommodates both warehouse access and children from a forest preschool, elements encountered by users—openings, stairs and guardrails—were developed in detail.

Junction details define the relationships between the steel frame, insulated panels, interior finishes and corrugated aluminum cladding. Connections between steel box sections, metal finishes and window frames were studied where the envelope meets openings.

Separate studies compare insulation continuity and drainage at the base of sliding windows. Drawings that retain review notes are distinguished from confirmed construction conditions.

Plan details define the junctions between the two side frames of the sliding window and the envelope. The overall opening and enlarged junctions are shown together to clarify the relationships between frame, steel box sections, insulation and corrugated cladding.

Head, sill and jamb connections of the fixed windows are documented in section and plan. Individual details define how window frames, metal finishes and walls meet at different positions around the opening.

The roof plan and junctions at the upper openings were coordinated, with details developing the connection between rain gutters and the envelope. The relationship between gutters, covers, flashing, brackets and the metal finish beneath was examined.

The positions of upper openings are shown in the roof model and plan, while section details define the material junctions around them.

Swing doors and top-hung sliding doors for the large openings were developed at the component scale. Exploded models and drawings define the relationships between frames, infill and finishes, corrugated cladding and operating components.

Interior models examine how opening the doors connects spaces. Construction documentation includes not only their appearance but also the information required for fabrication and assembly.

External stairs, wall-mounted handrails and guardrails were studied through models and detail drawings. Ends, supports and connections were resolved where these elements bridge the level difference between the building and the site.

These access elements were developed for a facility used in part by children. The included material records the design and construction process.

Sections and supports of the guardrails were detailed, and elevations defined the lengths and arrangement of members along each segment. Four elevations are presented alongside junction details to distinguish fabrication dimensions from site connections.

Construction is currently underway. The photographs record concrete walls, formwork, floor reinforcement and service penetrations, and the steel erection stage. They show how the junctions and component arrangements developed in construction documentation are being realized on site.

Each construction stage is identified separately from completed work. The authorship of the permit drawings and earlier structural design is distinguished from Seyeong Choi’s direct role in construction documentation and construction-stage work.
