Yeonheun Roasters by Sherpa

A scar is a trace caused by a natural phenomenon. Based on this, I worked while respecting the appearance of the existing building as much as possible and leaving traces. The old terrazzo floor was restored, and the windows hidden in the existing building were reused by replacing only the glass.

In addition, the arch-shaped structure previously held in the façade was brought and reflected in the structure of the furniture, and the relationship has continued. It also uses old lumber and oak wood in harmony, and leaves traces everywhere while showing the wood’s rings.

An interesting point is that the wood rings resemble human fingerprints, which were also connected to the appearance of the scar and borrowed graphically. In addition, some households used the fall method to burn wood and process cross sections so that both processed and burned wood can be seen.

The old ancient stone pillars are fixed to the foundation stone to emphasize the Korean feeling. It indirectly expresses a space where sculptural beams can be placed on the wall to share warmth, which is also connected to the lighting of the ceiling. These traces gather and remain to share warmth with the love room in the alleyway of Seochon to make everyday life glossy. Yeonheun Roasters leads daily life in the area of Seochon.
