는 성장해가고 있는 교회의 살아있는 예배와 주일 성경교육 프로그램,

또한 주중에 활발히 진행되는 많은 사역활동들을 지원할 새로운 새성전 건축 설계를

맡길 건축회사로 벡(Beck)그룹을 선정했다. 교회의 디자인에 대한 비젼은 강한 기독교

메세지를 담으면서 또한 한국적인 정서가 신앙과 문화의 융화속에 녹아있는 것이었다.

건축 부지는 포항의 신도시 개발지역으로 12,000평 정도가 되며, 가파르고 수목이 우거진

경사지와 엄격한 용도사용 제한이 있는 까다로운 조건의 지역에 위치해 있었다.

벡그룹의 디자인은 35,800m2의 공간을 조경의 자연스러운 라인을 연결시켜 대형의

중앙 플라자를 감싸안으며 빌딩의 흐름이 연결되도록 하였고, 2,700석의 예배공간과,

800석의 채플, 카페테리아, 카페, 도서관, 휘트니스 센터, 어린이 예배실, 청소년

예배실, 복지사역실, 그리고 350개의 지하 주차공간을 배치하였다. 자연의 언덕을

이용한 건물의 배치와 창문의 정교한 배치를 통해, 자연광을 충분히 이용하면서

에너지를 효율적으로 절약할 수 있도록 했다. 디자인 형태와 패턴은 한국의 전통

공예와 서예에서 영감을 얻었고, 자연재와 색상을 사용하여 전체적으로 조화를 이루

면서도 독창적인 작품이 되도록 했다. 글: 벡 그룹

chose Beck to create a new facility for the church’s growing, vibrant worship

and education programs on Sundays and for the church’s many social welfare ministries during

the week. The church’s vision was to have a design that expressed a strong symbolic Christian

message, but that also used traditional Korean symbols in a fusion of architecture, faith and

culture. The location was a 10 acre site in a new town development area of Pohang. This site had

many development challenges included steep, wooded hillsides and strict zoning limitations.

Beck’s solution provided a 383,500 SF design that integrated into the landscape with gently

flowing lines that wrap around a large central plaza. Spaces included a 2,700 seat sanctuary,

800seat chapel, cafeteria, cafe, library, fitness facilities, children’s and youth spaces, welfare

ministry facilities and a 350 car underground parking garage. Placement of the buildings into

the natural hillsides and careful orientation of the windows allowed ample natural light into the

spaces while providing greater energy efficiency. Forms and patterns in the architecture were

inspired by traditional Korean crafts and calligraphy, and the use of natural materials and colors

further harmonized the entire building into its unique place. Written by The Beck Groups
