CrossYear Project

Cross-year project for the archi students at Hanyang Univ! That means everyone will be split into groups and each group will be made up of people from different years. On friday morning, the archi dept hired buses to ferry the students and some professors to Incheon 인천. (Yes, that's where the airport is if some of you guys think it looks familiar)

Their 1st stop was Songdo International Business District 송도신도시, an island totally reclaimed for the purpose of a free economic zone. It is currently at the finishing stages of construction and as archi students, Geraldine and her coursemates were given a tour at the construction site. Unfortunately, it was in Korean and Geraldine is not good enough to understand such chim (singlish for complicated) stuff in a foreign language. Nevertheless, it was still interesting. Geraldine's 1st time to wear a helmet (and step into a construction site in slippers, omg right?). No one knew they were going to visit a construction site.

In the afternoon, they arrived at their seafront accomodation. It was lecture-dinner-lecture and barbeque! BBQ with huge chunks of meat/golgi 고기, and beer and soju. Geraldine secretly thinks that the whole point of this cross year thingy is the soju. The programme was such that they have to wake up at 6am the next morning to dig mud. If the project was the focus, then there would be no soju. Yeah? Anyway, the groups were suppose to think of a design for their landscape art. Landscape art is a reaction against commercial art blah blah blah.. They would have to design and build something in the mud when the tide is low and each group will give a short presentation, followed by some critiques from the professors.

Geraldine's group and their design! Taadaa!

It has something to do with the sun rays reflected onto the sea when the tide was in. She concludes that the group leader-cum-designer, Seonho (or SUNho as he spells it) 선호선배 really loves the SUN. ;;;
