Seoul-based architect Jong Soung Kimm's roots are in Korea, but his formative years were spent in Chicago--as a student at the Illinois Institute of Technology and later in the office of Mies van der Rohe. From 1961 to 1972--van der Rohe's final and most prolific years--Kimm worked on iconic projects like the older architect's last commission, the meticulously crafted Brown Wing of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. In 1978, Kimm returned to Seoul, opening his own architectural design consultancy, SAC International. For the past 30 years, Kimm's buildings--such as the Weightlifting Gymnasium for the 1988 Seoul Olympics and the Sonje Museum of Contemporary Art in Kyongju--have evinced both an admiration for Mies and a Korean sensibility. This volume is a much-needed comprehensive look at Kimm's oeuvre, which infuses Mies' principles of tectonics with his own reliance on intuition.

Condition: Neu. Exploring Tectonic Space: Architecture of Jong Soung Kimm. Mit einem Vorwort von Fritz Neumeyer. Deutsch/Englisch. Übersetzung ins Deutsche von Irene Eisenhut. Übersetzung ins Englische von Geoffrey Steinherz. Jong Soung Kimm verbindet auf einzigartige Weise die Bewunderung für Mies van der Rohe und die Prinzipien der koreanischen Architektur. Nach einer umfassenden Einleitung zu Architektur und Technik bei Jong Soung Kimm analysiert der Autor dessen Konzept des Raumes an sechs exemplarischen Bauten: Lobby des Seoul Hilton Hotel; Korea Military Academy Library; Seoul National University Museum; Artsonje Museum, Kyongju; Seoul Museum of History; Weightlifting Gymnasium für die Olympischen Spiele in Seoul. - Jong Soung Kimms Arbeit ist nicht nur von der offensichtlichen Bewunderung für Mies van der Rohe geprägt, sondern zeigt auch eine koreanische Sensibilität, begründet durch die Kultur, in der er aufgewachsen ist. Sein Werk stellt daher eine einzigartige Verbindung dieser beiden Aspekte dar. Seine wichtigsten Bauten: Seoul Hilton Hotel, 1977-1983; Korea Military Academy Library, 1980-1982; Seoul National University Museum, 1984-1994; Kyongju Sonje Museum of Contemporary Art, 1987-1991; Seoul Museum of History, 1987-1998; Weightlifting Gymnasium für die Olympischen Spiele in Seoul, 1984-1986; SK Corporation Headquarters Office Building, 1986-1999. 118 Seiten mit 155 überwiegend farbigen Abb., Großformat, gebunden (Wasmuth Verlag 2008).
