"Alley in the building"
-
The alleyway is quite an interesting space. Perhaps because of the narrow road, the surrounding low buildings look taller, but it is not unpleasant and the other roads that appear in between stimulate my curiosity. If you are lucky enough to choose one of the many crossroads and walk, you may discover restaurants or hip cafes you don't normally know about, so walking down the alley is more enjoyable than walking along the street. In addition, these roads are meandering, making it difficult to see where and what is at a glance. So, turning around several times and discovering unexpected places doubles the fun.
-
The space to be introduced this time allows you to feel the exciting and pleasant emotions of the alleyways as they are. As the name suggests, this place called 'garo alley' brings the alleyways of the neighborhood into the building. By extending the horizontal path vertically, you can naturally go up to another floor by riding a ramp. The first floor open here also serves as a shortcut by allowing access to the back road of the building.
-
The method of moving each floor with a ramp is like climbing an alley with a gentle slope. Thanks to this, stores of the same size are listed, but the higher the flow, the different the height of the floors, so you can see a different side of Garosu-gil.
-
Like the drama of 'Reply 1988', just as neighbors sit on a bench and chat and share memories with each other, here too, on a fine day, people gather together and build memories naturally. The cafe on the first floor attracts people, and the vertically extending alley catches them.
-
But now, for whatever reason, the shopping mall is all empty. It's a pity that it's built well and can't be used properly. Do you want to represent the commercial district of Garosu-gil that is dying? I hope that the stores will come back and light up the whole area. Because I believe that a good space can change the surroundings.
