Wanted

HAKUNA MATATA _ Together, There Is Nothing to Fear

This is the 'Wanted Ground' project, a complex educational space created by the career platform Wanted as an offline hub for nurturing developers. Just as Simba in The Lion King meets a variety of friends, grows, and finds his own path, this space too was conceived as a place of 'HAKUNA MATATA,' where people who share the same goal learn and grow together. With a welcome lounge on the 1st floor, an education center on the 2nd–4th floors, and a community lounge on the 6th floor, we clearly separated the role of each floor while designing the circulation so that natural exchange would occur. By using wood as the primary finishing material, the space maintains a comfortable warmth even through long hours of study, and the 6th-floor auditorium was given modular stools and a flexible configuration so it can adapt nimbly to a wide range of events for up to 100 people. The lecture rooms, making use of sound-absorbing finishes and curtains, are equipped with an acoustic environment optimized for concentration.
