About three years ago, half way through an undergraduate scheme, I found a
post on BLDGBLOG that somewhat changed my point of view. Rather than change the design completely, I carried on along the path I had been taking, and produced a reasonable attempt at a prototype commital and memorial facility in a semi-urban environment, based on British cultural heritage.

In my mind the project was unfinished, as it hadn't fulfilled its original ambition of providing a fully urban solution. The problem was that potential for that solution was in a different direction and had been ably examined by
Chanjoong Kim (System Lab), through development of the vertical collumbarium.

I feel that I still have something to add, so really, the reason I joined the Seoul Satellite Unit, was to follow System Lab and the others, to finish what I started three years ago - my footsteps upward.
