Wonso-dong, near Changdeokgung Palace's Secret Garden, was historically home to Chosun officials and features a mix of hanok and Western-style buildings. The studio is situated at this transition point, requiring a sensitive design that respects the area's heritage while embracing contemporary architecture.Save this picture!Design Concept: A Village of Roofs Inspired by hanok architecture, the studio's design integrates five distinct roofs of varying sizes and orientations around a central flat roof, evoking a small "Wonseo-village." The gently curved rooflines mirror traditional hanok eaves, allowing the building to blend into the irregular landscape while complementing its surroundings.Save this picture!Architectural Features and Materials The south-facing faade features horizontal concrete slabs extending across two floors, with an upward-curving roof creating a sense of movement. The structure combines reinforced concrete, steel, and timber, ensuring durability while maintaining an organic feel. The lower floors use concrete, while the second floor incorporates steel and timber columns. The timber-framed roof enhances warmth and lightness. On the east side, three gable roofs extend outward, framing large windows that offer views of Go Hui-dong's house and the Secret Garden. These windows foster a visual connection to the neighborhood's historical and cultural landmarks. In contrast, the north and west sides have fewer windows, ensuring privacy and cohesion with the surrounding buildings.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Interior Design: Warmth and Flexibility Inside, the studio features a blend of exposed concrete, steel, wood, and plywood, creating a balance between practicality and aesthetics. Natural wood columns and earthy tones complement the surrounding environment, while traditional Korean elements like dancheong-painted walls and hanji paper coverings reflect cultural heritage. The interior is designed for flexibility, with adaptable spaces that evolve over time. The widened staircase doubles as a bookshelf, merging function and design. Large corner windows enhance openness and natural lighting, while extended eaves provide shading, improving energy efficiency.Save this picture!Save this picture!Sustainability and Cultural Reflection The studio represents the evolving relationship between Korean tradition and modernization. Its design honors hanok elements while incorporating modern construction and sustainability principles. The combination of concrete, steel, and timber is both economical and aesthetically pleasing, while natural insulation methods help minimize energy use.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!This project embodies the dialogue between past and present, demonstrating how contemporary architecture can preserve cultural heritage while meeting modern needs. It serves not just as a workspace but as a symbol of Korea's dynamic architectural evolution.Save this picture!The Wonso-dong studio exemplifies how modern architecture can thoughtfully reinterpret tradition. By blending hanok-inspired forms with contemporary materials, the building contributes to the neighborhood's evolving architectural identity.

Civilization 7's first DLC, Crossroads of the World, adds Great Britain to the list of available Civilizations in the Modern Age. This Economic/Expansionist Civilization specializes in naval units, economic strategies, and cultural strategies.

The Persona series started to gain a lot of its public attention after the release of Persona 4 Golden and completely came to mainstream attention after the release of Persona 5. The entries in the series before that date back as far as 1996, when the first Persona game was released.

Shellder, the water-type bivalve Pokmon from Kanto, can be found in the wild in Pokmon Go. Yes, Shellder can be shiny in Pokmon Go!Cloyster doesnt see much use in raids, as theres many ice- and water-type Pokmon that do significantly more damage than it. However, Cloyster does see some usage in Ultra League PvP at times.Notably, Shellder is worth a ton of Stardust for some reason. Catching one Shellder will net you 1,000 Stardust, so if theres a Spotlight Hour or event that boosts the spawns of these little guys and boosts Stardust per catch, you can really rake in the dust.What is the shiny rate for Shellder in Pokmon Go?As per old research by the now-defunct website The Silph Road (via Wayback Machine), the shiny rate for Pokmon on a regular day is approximately one in 500. Shellder is not a confirmed Pokmon that gets a permaboost (meaning that its a rare spawn and thus gets a boosted shiny rate).What can I do to attract more shiny Pokmon?Not much, unfortunately. It appears to be random chance. Shiny Pokmon catch rates are set by developer Niantic, and they are typically only boosted during special events like Community Days or Safari Zones, or in Legendary Raids. There are no consumable items that boost shiny Pokmon rates.Where can I find a list of available shiny Pokmon?LeekDuck keeps a list of currently available shiny Pokmon. Its a helpful visual guide that illustrates what all of the existing shiny Pokmon look like.For more tips, check out Polygons Pokmon Go guides.
