exhibition at the Guimet Museum of Asian Art in France, was awarded the Chevalier of France, and was the first Korean in Japan to receive the Murano Togo Award.\u003cbr\u003e Architect Jun Itami achieved splendid fame in his later years, but the buildings he left behind over the years are quiet and simple.\u003cbr\u003e Representative works such as Japan's 'House of Food', 'House of Margins', and 'Stone Church', and Korea's Jeju Island's 'Grape Hotel', 'Water, Wind, and Stone Art Museum', and 'Ark Church' are famous for their architecture that blends into nature and takes advantage of the local customs and characteristics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Jun Itami, My Architecture\" is a book that provides a glimpse into the life and architectural world of architect Jun Itami.\u003cbr\u003e As a second-generation Korean born in Japan, he embraced his identity as a border person and constantly questioned what architecture should contain. \u003cbr\u003eBased on the questions that permeated his life, he built a unique architectural world that is not influenced by any trends or fads, and that shows the aesthetics of restraint and harmony.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e After establishing an architectural firm in the late 1960s, he began to actively contribute articles on architecture.\u003cbr\u003e This book contains writings he wrote until a few years before his death, along with a variety of photographs.\u003cbr\u003e From childhood memories and everyday experiences to explorations of Joseon Dynasty architecture and art, exchanges with architects and artists who inspired and inspired him, and deep thoughts and design intentions behind his architecture, you can see it all at a glance.\u003cbr\u003e This book is even more meaningful as it was compiled and compiled by architect Yuihwa Yu, the daughter of Jun Itami and an active member of the front lines who has inherited her father's philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e My father stuck to analog drawing until the end. \u003cbr\u003eHe considers himself the 'architect of the last remaining hand', and he draws with his soul in every single line, excluding computer design.\u003cbr\u003e I also believe that the power of hand architecture is ‘heart.’\u003cbr\u003e The process of a sketch becoming a model, and the model becoming architecture, is ultimately a connection between the hand and the heart, and the soul being born as architecture.\u003cbr\u003e ─From \"Seomun (Architect

theoretically.\u003cbr\u003e But art is not born from theory.\u003cbr\u003e In that sense, art is something that is difficult to define and contains mystery.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.51\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIn an age of anonymity, an unknown painter, wandering from place to place, working more freely and more creatively, would not have even consciously judged whether the picture he painted was beautiful.\u003cbr\u003e They would have simply moved their brushes and traced the outlines of objects, without any ambition and with only an interest in the living spaces of common people.\u003cbr\u003e There was a careless heart behind that act.\u003cbr\u003e In this way, folk paintings were born from the lives of the people.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.86\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Although the process of making Joseon porcelain by shaping and firing clay can be said to be authentic, in terms of form and shape, it can only be said to be truly immature.\u003cbr\u003e However, it is a so-called imperfect, unfinished vessel that has a human touch like human warmth and is free from any traces of artificiality.\u003cbr\u003e Only when another element, tea, is added to it does it show its complete beauty and blend in with the surrounding objects. \u003cbr\u003ePerhaps its simplicity and imperfection are what captivate people with its timeless beauty.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.103-104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I do not mean to exclude function from architecture.\u003cbr\u003e There is even less desire to pursue virtual architecture that entrusts the construction of space to digital and computer graphics.\u003cbr\u003e I want to build a world that can be said to be my own unique modernism or genre, with traces of my hands and physicality still present.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.191\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A form appropriate to the local climate should not be forced.\u003cbr\u003e Simply placing a sculpture in the landscape does not create a sculpture.\u003cbr\u003e Only a shape derived from the local climate can become a mountain shape.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, it is necessary to find the essence in the local culture.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.212-213\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I think that great ideas have something like body temperature.\u003cbr\u003e Likewise, wouldn't excellent architecture also have something like a warm body temperature? \u003cbr\u003eWithout incorporating the warmth and life of humans living in the present as the subjects of creation into design, a truly new reality cannot be achieved, and thus, a rich urban landscape will never be created.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.286-288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e For me, 'description' and 'drawing' are not only means of tracing the outline of architecture and objects, but also a tuning for my life and a rite of passage for the original experience and confirmation toward architecture.\u003cbr\u003e In other words, it may be the structure of love that leads to architecture, the construction of softness.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.301\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e What should be included at the foundation of architecture?\u003cbr\u003e Unless it contains human life and strong aspirations, it is difficult to complete architecture that moves people.\u003cbr\u003e It contains human warmth and life at its core.\u003cbr\u003e How can we infuse the traditions, context, and essence of the region into the buildings we build in the future? \u003cbr\u003eWhat is important is to listen to the local customs and the language that the 'sound of the wind' speaks.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e ---

architecture into art\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Jun Itami used the Korean name Yoo Dong-ryong until he graduated from university, but this restricted his work as an architect.\u003cbr\u003e Then, during his first visit to Korea, he used the Itami Airport and created the stage name Itami Jun by taking the Chinese character 'Yun' from the name of the composer Gil Ok-yoon, with whom he was close.\u003cbr\u003e Although he was discriminated against as an outsider in Japanese society and treated as a marginalized person in Korean society, he maintained his Korean roots and identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This soon led to a lifelong exploration of Korean traditions and Joseon Dynasty architecture and art. \u003cbr\u003eJun Itami presents expert-level analyses of the origins and production of white porcelain, its unadorned beauty, the resilient vitality of folk painting, the art of obscurity, and the indifferent and still structure of the ancestral shrine, which does not flaunt its existence.\u003cbr\u003e It is no exaggeration to say that Itami Jun's philosophy, which views architecture not as a simple functional structure but as a space in harmony with natural elements such as earth, stone, wind, water, and light, originated here.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The characteristics of Joseon Dynasty housing can be found in its local character, influenced by feng shui and Confucianism.\u003cbr\u003e Human life cannot be discussed without its relationship to the soil.\u003cbr\u003e The soil is alive.\u003cbr\u003e And the earth gives birth to all life, and that life returns to the earth again.\u003cbr\u003e A worldview that rivaled the belief in reverence for the earth developed into a kind of ideology and had a great influence on the lives of the people.\u003cbr\u003e ─In the text\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOn the one hand, he expanded his architectural territory through extensive exchanges with contemporary architects and artists from Japan and Korea.\u003cbr\u003e His encounters with architect Seiichi Shirai, who served as his mentor and spiritual leader and combined Japanese tradition with Western design; painter Insik Kwak, a master of Oriental minimalism who encouraged him to develop his aesthetic talent; and architect Chung-up Kim, a poet who “was not afraid of individuality and misunderstanding,” played a decisive role in Itami Jun’s elevating architecture to art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAn architect who pursued warmth and wildness\u003cbr\u003e Encountering the landscapes of Itami Jun\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In Itami Jun's space, his own spirituality, philosophy, and way of life are strongly revealed. \u003cbr\u003eFrom his first atelier, ‘House of Food’, which vaguely attempted to explore “a state between the subtleties of light and darkness”, to the ‘Onyang Art Museum’, which completed a “wild building based on regional characteristics” using stones and soil from the region, to the ‘Stone Church’, which made use of “a form derived from the local climate”, to the ‘Grape Hotel’, which “has a roof that forms an irregular flow, as if forming a small village”, he has pursued architecture in which nature and humans coexist harmoniously.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It may be an auditory hallucination, but I feel an essential life force in the words of the stone itself, in the gravity that presses down on the earth.\u003cbr\u003e The true purity of form can be achieved by utilizing materials familiar to humans, such as wood or stone, naturally extracted from the traditional context of the region, and containing the artist's strong desires.\u003cbr\u003e ─In the text\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eJun Itami delved into the essence and use of materials such as stone and earth, while also not shying away from leaving the 'warmth of the hand'.\u003cbr\u003e The statement, \"What modern architecture lacks is warmth and wildness,\" encapsulates his philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e Even as design and architectural planning shifted from pens to computers, we never lost sight of the belief that it was the hand that truly expressed human emotion.\u003cbr\u003e Through this book, you will encounter the landscape of Jun Itami, who, as an architect and artist, has spent his life questing to create “living architecture.”
