In high-density urban life, fast rhythms and constant pressures make mental health a vital concern. Gokgwang-Yeongsim responds as a space for psychological relief. Inspired by canyon landscapes, it transforms natural processes of erosion and sedimentation into a spatial sequence. Visitors move through sunlight-filled outdoor spaces, emotion-guiding stairways of light, sensory-awakening underground gardens, community-nurturing symbiotic canyons, and the meditation valley, where a single beam leads to deep self-reflection. Light and shadow shift subtly, at times warm and bright, at times calm and focused, guiding visitors through emotional release, sensory awakening, and inner peace.
