The Hanok, a traditional Korean house, is a fluid and opened, essentially a modern space of wood pillars supporting a massive tiled roof. The limit between inside and outside is given by the perimeter wall, while the walls consist of wooden frame window panels, traditionally covered with glued paper.
The reconstruction was executed by a traditional carpenter, carefully preserving the beautiful interaction between the inside courtyard, the rooms and the outside walled garden.
