English	The design draws inspiration from the traditional patterns of agricultural fields as seen from the air, based on square modules, with sizes and shapes tailored to suit the functions and purposes within the plaza. Each different sub-shape is transformed and expanded into spaces such as rest areas, green spaces, and water space, etc. The fountain plaza on the east side, where the square module descends below the zero level, is a water space with calm fresh water, ensuring it retains its aesthetic function even in dry winter. The cube plaza designed with modules that rise upwards, itself functions as a planter or resting areas.
Native	공중에서 본 전통적인 전답의 형태에서 모티브를 가져온 디자인으로, 정사각의 모듈을 기본으로 광장 안에서의 기능과 용도에 맞게 크기와 형태를 맞추어 계획했다. 각각의 다른 사변형(sub-shape)들은 휴게공간, 녹지공간, 수공간 등으로 변형되고 확장된다. 사각의 모듈이 제로 레벨 아래로 내려가는 동측의 분수광장(fountain plaza)은 잔잔하게 담수가 되는 수공간으로, 겨울의 건천 시에서도 심미적인 기능을 잃지 않도록 했다. 반면 위로 솟은 모듈로 설계한 서측의 큐브광장(cube plaza)은 그 자체가 플랜터, 혹은 평상 기능을 하여 쉴 수 있도록 하였다.

Judging Comments	The design is inspired by traditional agricultural field patterns viewed from above, using square modules that adapt in size and shape to the plaza's functions. Each sub-shape is transformed into areas such as rest spaces, green zones, and water features. The eastern fountain plaza, where the square module drops below ground level, serves as a water feature that remains aesthetically functional even in dry winter. Meanwhile, the cube plaza, with modules that rise upwards, functions as a planter and resting area.
