‘Design’, this word is originated from combination destruct and signature.
So now what I want to talk about is …..
What is your image about this plant having with
long chimney? What the lovely clouds like cotton sugar! What the strong red colors based on this building? What for?Is this for Santa Claus coming X-mas? Somebody have an idea
what it is, already? This is the facility that is necessary one but people don’t
want to put in my backyard. Right, this is a garbage incineration plant. When I saw this one, I could not hardly admire the vivid color and the idea beyond routine thinking.
This was built in Gwangmyung-city located in just
west outskirts of Seoul. Of course, this was not built in easily when the city declared the construction of it. The local
residents severely protested against the construction of an incinerating
facility due to NIMBY syndrome at first. So long time was needed to persuade
the citizens. The outer of this building was re-colored again in JUN 2014
according to “Super graphic project of garbage incinerator” by collaboration
with Gwangmyung-city and Youngse Kim(김영세) who is famous designer in world widely. This
project had been pushed as the way for the change of conception about unpleasant
facilities. Many examiners were against this design because red color was so
shock in itself and said that it was beyond conception. But the major had positive interesting in this design and asked to them which one of these three designs on the list is mostly left in
their head. Of course, they said "he impressive red one".
Designer said “Why garbage incinerator should be built
like a trash? Why not by the beautiful way? Why not? I want to be as a designer who makes
even this plant beautiful. I express the dreams in white clouds on the basis of
red containing passions and imagine this is the site where the clouds relating
with the heaven are able to take a rest comfortably.” Now Gwangmyung-city has
become the city where has pretty red plant and sense of art. Of course, many citizens who live in this city as well as neighboring cities visit and it has loved day by day. Thumbs-up!!
