From the architect. Taekwang Country Club is a 36-hole golf course located just outside ofSeoul. The new two-floor caf is nestled in a steep hill, acting as a visual point of referenceon the course. Responding to the mountainous Korean landscape and local vegetation, thebuilding is well-integrated into its environment.

Players are treated to different views of the caf across the golf course, even though it isnever visible in its entirety.

The expressive oversized black steel roof with a distinct pattern of interlocking circlesproduces a generous all-sided canopy.

Voids in the roof allow trees to extend above the building and filter the sunlight to create acalm and peaceful atmosphere inside. The pattern of circles is continued on the ceiling ofthe caf for a visually coherent approach.

The elegant new caf offers a comfortable space where members can relax and enjoy a cupof coffee or a light meal while waiting for their caddies to take them to the teeing ground.

The caf is also the resting point halfway through the game. Floor-to-ceiling windows offergenerous views over the golf course and its surroundings, making the caf an integral partof the sporting experience.
