On the 15th, Gansam announced that they won the Featured Finalist for MQ’s work ‘50 & The Table’ from IDEA(International Design Excellence Awards) 2023.

Gansam recreated visual materials generated during the design process into works with various visual and sensuous expressions by architects through Mr.Q project since 2021.

‘50′ and ‘The Table,’ which won the IDEA Featured Finalist, were also produced by architects of Gansam, Yujin Seo and Hyungjin Cho through the Mr.Q project.

‘50′ was recreated by combining Gansam’s design plans for new Hanyang University Hospital building with 50 round plates of 200 mm in diameter.

‘The Table’ was recreated by transfer printing isometric images of five architectures designed by Gansam on ceramic plates. Utilized images are Paradise Cimer, Aqua Planet Yeosu, Aloft Seoul Gangnam, Namsan N Tower office facility in Chungmu-ro, and detached houses in Pyeongchang-dong.

Taijip Kim, CEO of Gansam said, “This award is the result of the architects' passion and efforts full of experimental spirit," and added comments, "I am glad that Mr. Q's work, one of the projects that Gansam continues to attempt to expand the scope other than architecture, has won the prestigious award. We will continue to propose new ideas and values."
