This was the first opportunity to introduce our projects to tutors at KNUA, and visiting critics. General feedback raised the question specificity. At this stage, I found difficult to answer. What is landscape? I must question and define what landscape means to me and what my parameters are.

Jon Wan: Look at Yong San Park
- Competition held to design a new park in Seoul on an old army base
- This project lies somewhere between landscape and architecture
What is ‘landscape’?
- Best to refer to ‘landscape’ only, define what landscape means to me (definition should be in contract)
Landscape in the city fabric
- Look at landscape at various scales, not just mountains but plants climbing walls etc. (small study)
Mountains appear from a distance to be in control but actually much is controlled by people/city e.g. hiking, satellites, etc.
- how does Seoul’s landscape impact on culture here?
Subsequent chat with Professor JK
- pointed me to Beigel’s writing and works and how we organise landscape. I have begun reading some of Beigel’s writings so will continue down this route of research and visit Paju Book City
- there are differences between nature and landscape, this landscape is how the city is organised within the landscape – research direction
