The Tan-Mok-Won bakery, designed by Suk Lee and Jongbang Park, emerges in Ulsan, South Korea, where a fire devastated the area in 2013. Key to the design are ten enduring trees marked with red ribbons by the client, symbolizing resilience. The building features charred wood cladding, reflecting the fire's destruction. A mirrored east facade blends the structure into its seasonal landscape, while a southeastern courtyard highlights three trees. The bakery's doubly curved gable roof introduces dynamism, inviting visitors to engage with the natural environment and the site's rich history.
Suk Lee and Jongbang Park's Tan-Mok-Won bakery thoughtfully integrates nature and memory, using materials and design to honor the land's past after a devastating fire.
The architecture reflects enduring trees as a central element, with charred wood cladding echoing the destructive force of fire while celebrating resilience.
