This book is about traditional Korean architecture. It is divided into three parts -- floral lattices, columns and pavilions. Among these three types of architecture, let us consider the pavilion. The pavilion is the epitome of the bared structure and is expressed in the most architecturally beautiful way possible. A unique characteristic of the pavilion is that there is no distinction between inner and outer space. The ultimate purpose is to become one with nature. Traditional architecture was a mental activity that included ethical issues such as preserving the human body and mind. In each section, the book includes specific explanations and vivid photos so readers can fully appreciate the aesthetic aspects of Korean traditional architecture. Yim Seock-jae, the author of this book, is a professor of architecture at Ewha Womans University and has written extensively about architecture.
