Award Winner : POSCO A&C

Architectural Excellence : Building: The gross site area is 10,305 square meters and building area is 2,749. The hotel is consist of 3 buildings with four-story and provide total 301 rooms.
Unit: Every parts of building are divided to 3,300mmx7,000mmx3,200mm units that was carefully considered of mobility and sustainability.
Exterior: Exterior is minimized with less decorative design element to emphasize the aesthetic of natural material's charicteristic; steel, glass and aluminum with elevation pattern from repeatitive units.
Interior: Detail touch were made both in hallway and lobby with high-quality steel and space itself is designed considering its use. Particularly, the stair and hallway were prefabricated in module. Premium steel bath system is installed instead of tiled unit bath system, and interior wall was enhanced by high corrosion-proof fabric textured printed color steel plate. Notes or the painting can be posted on the wall with magnet. The wall is free from nailing and taping.

Cost Energy Effectiveness : - HSA500 steel material was adopted to decrease the thickness and the quantity of steel framing.
- Parts of the Unit were prefabricated to decrease work period and boost ease of installation.
: UBR POD system was prefabricated and installed to unit with mechanical and electricity system
: Pipe and duct space was designed considering the lightweightness and the ease of maintenance.
: Fireproof performance and ease of installation waere secured with adoption of exterior wall metal panel
- interior system wall considering transportation defects was adopted and decrease the defect fixing cost. A vacancy rate can be decreased and the operating income can be secured compared with traditional construction method.
