A space where people and nature 'reach' each other on a broad land facing the sky, if one were to construct the image of a crane spreading its wings, it would look like this. Located in Sokcho, Cafe Reach (긷) presents a seamless connection between landscape and architecture, captivating visitors with views at every step.

📍Variation Path
Entering Reach involves several variations. Following walls layered one after another, visitors experience a short maze through a small garden. The height of the walls towering over human height and the gaps between amplify curiosity.

📍Harmony of Nature and Architecture
Turning around the path, the scene unfolds into a sweet gift of architecture harmonizing with nature. Gentle ripples and shadows on a shallow water surface touch the heart. A spiral staircase, seeming to float over water, becomes the only inflection point in a linear space, achieving a balanced architecture without emphasizing any specific element.

Surrounded by walls, the space offers an infinite openness, acting like a grand frame capturing sunlight and wind fully. Below are the earth and water, while above lie the boundless sky and sun, creating a relation.

📍Maximum Texture and Minimal Color
The achromatic interior is dominated by massive blocks. The fragmented ceiling art and a giant black table display overwhelming texture, responding to the volume of Ulsan Rock seen in the front, with a rock-shaped table anchoring the center of gravity, and the ceiling adorned with sculptures resembling sophisticated wind curves. To focus on the colors of nature, the primary viewing element, the space boldly eliminates color.

With no distractions, visitors fully immerse in the viewing method proposed by Reach, an excellent example of techniques relating nature, people, and architecture exists in Sokcho, Gangwon-do.
