Woljeong Sogul is situated within a quiet inland village set slightly apart from the busy shoreline of Woljeong Beach, where low stone walls and a restrained atmosphere define the landscape.

The clients sought both a protected residential space for their family and an independent stay within a limited plot, and as the placement of the volumes and pathways evolved, the shared direction remained consistent—minimal, clear, and restrained. The architecture is composed at the smallest feasible scale and connected through flat roofs that continue the village’s gentle skyline, using materials and colors that recede into the horizontal scenery shared by the beach and the settlement. A subtle sequence unfolds along the linked eaves and low boundary walls, guiding movement from narrow sheltered passages to the inner courtyard and revealing a quiet rhythm that softens the otherwise enclosed volumes. The spaces were intentionally kept spare so that everyday experiences could accumulate with density—the warmth of light filtering through the eaves, shifting views shaped by one’s position, and the quiet exchanges between the dwelling and its surroundings. Woljeong Sogul remains modest and aligned with its context, holding the family’s daily warmth while offering visitors a calm and grounded sense of Jeju.
