Project Description:
Due to safety concerns, the oil stockpile was moved when the 2002 World Cup Stadium was built, and was closed once the oil reserves were transferred in November 2000. The area has remained closed for more than 10 years, because an appropriate use for the land has not yet been found.
The reserve is located in Sangam, which is an area of regeneration that gives back to both nature and citizens. It was once an abandoned mountain of waste, but now stands as a state-of-the-art city that leads the future of Seoul. Sangam has achieved a communication and co-existence between people and nature.
As the Sangam DMC takes steps to balance its composition, the oil reserve base, “a relic of the industrial era”, has the potential to increase the DMC’s value.
As Sangam’s last remnant of land, the oil reserve base will be returned to the citizens through the ideas of students and professionals who reflect the meaning and value of the land, and regenerate the space to meet this new era’s core values of environment & ecology and sustainable future.
