Floored Ceramics: a transformative landscape
Heritage and Cultural Environments


“Every Journey Begins with a Single Step” - Korean Proverb

Floored Ceramics is the innovative process of eroding layers of a paved floor consisting of different clay slips. Colours, images and text wear away over a period of years to reveal further hierarchies of information. The project is located in Seoul, South Korea, a city with an intriguing and complex history. Floored ceramics embeds the narratives of heritage, memory and discovery within the very foundations of the city to create an emotionally sustainable and unique landmark. This imaginative space encourages the visitors to trace their own pathways in unison with the historical pathways of Seoul. The ceramic process allows the site to evolve and encourages visitors to return over the course of its lifetime.
