Nature's House: Becke
-
If we were to build a house for humans, of course we would try to reflect the taste of the person living there. What I always insist on is that the space is 'for the writer [life]' is today's topic. As we often discuss, zoos are like, 'Isn't it built for animals?' That being said, if you think about it carefully, zoos are designed to 'enjoy humans to see animals', not for animals to live in. So, the people who use the zoo are 'humans'. The same goes for the 'Aquarium'. There is a trend of the times that the world gradually recognizes him and moves, but how it will end is still unknown. However, we always need a more coexistent world, a spatial alternative that can coexist with life.

One of them is probably today's space. It is an evolved version of the 'Naturalist Garden' ecological garden, and although it is true that plants are artificially touched, it is said that there is a difference in gardening considering the environment of plants first. So, this is a house full of taste for plants. It composes the vegetation and environment in which plants can grow well, and puts people's paths behind it. As a result, the time the water comes out of the sprinkler is just right on the human road. Seeing that we have to be careful when the water comes out, we can easily guess that the plants come before us.

The house of such plants is the model, and after that is this small space like a pile of stones.
-
Small piles of stones as aggregate in black concrete. The stones can be seen through cracks in the concrete. From a distance, they look just like stones, but when viewed up close, they look like piles of stones. Moreover, the color of basalt, which is abundant in Jeju Island, was reflected in the concrete. The dark black concrete looks just like a wall from the outside of the cafe [Photo 3]. If you draw as if there is nothing and then pass through the walls, you will find a space you have only seen before, and this space is for humans. It is a human space that can only be watched so that the plants do not get harmed. And if you sit on the floor half as low as eye level with them, the coffee table and the garden floor are on the same line. The appreciation of looking up at them or the appreciation of being in the same position and looking at nature is unique. Most of this space is mainly a garden, which is much larger than this cafe. And the cafe space really only protects the minimum area. A beautiful and well-decorated house in nature is not an easy sight to see anywhere. It is literally like being given a picture-like scene.

It cannot be said that a person has not been touched at all. So, I sometimes approached the beauty close to the masterpiece that nature creates. 'Like a pile of stones from the days of farming with a plow, it has an artificial grain, but it still feels close to nature' [sentence meaning Becker (Jeju language)]. is well followed by the name's story as a representation and a form of space and for that purpose. And it is also a space where everyone is looking forward to 'spring summer autumn winter'.
