COSMO 40
Seo-gu, Incheon • Cafe
Hate facility? - Have you ever been inside a super-large factory? The sense of space there is very different from what we know. A space like the universe where people become infinitely smaller. May we make our own small world there. Delicious pizza and coffee are a bonus! — Hate facility? - We call the cemetery, garbage treatment plant, sewage treatment plant, and various factory complexes a hate facility. Residents dislike this facility because of the fact that it affects the living environment if it is nearby and it is not aesthetically pleasing. 'Good things are in my backyard, bad things are in someone else's backyard'. These are also facilities that correspond to 'Nimby' among the classic exam questions of PIMBY and NIMBY during childhood. As such, the problems that occur in the real life of city dwellers and the real estate market are sensitive and difficult enough to become a social phenomenon. The reason this problem is hard to disappear is that some city clearly needs these facilities. - Then what about the abandoned chemical plant? How do you deal with buildings that have been chemically pickled and worn out for decades? that becomes the topic Hate facilities are relocated, usually demolished according to the logic of capital and a new space is built. What if it could become a space that can contribute to the local community while leaving traces of the factory of the past? From this point on, this hate facility has a new 'potential'. - These hate facilities are difficult for the general public to directly access. It is because city dwellers judge these facilities only by their existence and external appearance, and at the same time, because there is a barrier to entry that only special occupational groups are used. However, the sense of space in this space is not so common. very special The facilities of factories, which are not normally encountered in reality, are much larger than those of humans. Each floor is 14m high. This includes the base of the apartment and is roughly equivalent to the height of up to the fourth floor. Is there any other space other than a nice large art museum where you can usually feel this kind of appreciation? This also makes a big difference in that it is very beautifully done with an elegant and nice finish. - In the end, there is an attractive possibility that you will encounter all the 'sense of space' of a factory among these disgusting facilities for the first time. - Moreover, the vertical movement space and the dizzying sense of space, which are inevitably complicated due to factory facilities, are attractive points to enter. - In this way, facilities undergoing remodeling in the context of urban regeneration must use their insulation and fire protection materials to comply with the current law and gradually erase their true appearance, but in order to fully utilize the appreciation, the wise method of 'extension' is chosen. did. Thanks to this, I was able to revive most of the interior traces of the space. It becomes an interior that can make a strong impression on its own. - Thanks to this clever revitalization, the space here is an experience that is hard to feel anywhere else. It includes various programs according to the scale, and the problems of soundproofing and sloped walls caused by past use are performed simultaneously with these programs, and a different impression is created every time. - That's why this *upcycling project is unparalleled. - This is #cosmo40, an upcycling space in Incheon. - Location _ 9, Janggogae-ro 231-gil, Seo-gu, Incheon - Business hours _ 11-20 - Parking available - Program _ Exhibition, Bakery Cafe, Pizzeria, Office - Menu is attached. - PS.
