1. Geometric Harmony & Transparency
The exterior architecture is defined by two primary volumes: a solid, light-gray stone mass and a transparent, glass-enclosed pavilion. This juxtaposition creates a rhythmic transition from private, functional zones to open, social spaces. The expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing is sheltered by a deep, cantilevered roof plane with a timber-finished soffit, blurring the boundary between the interior lounge and the surrounding fairway.
2. The Interior Journey
The interior sequence is designed to evoke a sense of calm and luxury:
- The Grand Lobby: A double-height atrium features massive wood-clad columns and a slatted ceiling system, creating a sense of verticality and warmth. Large-scale glazing ensures that the landscape remains a constant backdrop for arriving guests.
- Refined Materiality: Bronze-toned metallic finishes are paired with textured stone walls in the circulation corridors, providing a tactile, high-end feel.
- Atmospheric Lighting: Strategic use of skylights and recessed cove lighting creates a soft, ethereal glow, particularly in the curved locker room corridors and transition spaces.
3. Functional Elegance
Every functional space is treated with architectural precision. The dining and conference areas utilize geometric-patterned carpeting and minimalist furniture to maintain a professional yet inviting atmosphere. The powder rooms and vanity areas are finished in white marble with custom-designed lighting fixtures, reflecting JXP’s commitment to detailing at every scale—from the site plan down to the vanity mirror.
Our approach for the Hansung Country Club was to create a 'frame' for the landscape. By stripping away the ornamental, we allow the natural beauty of Yongin to become the primary interior finish.
