CASCADIA Golf Membership is situated within the mountains of Hongcheon-gun, Gangwon-do, providing full isolation from the town whereas preserving nature as it’s. Surrounded by layers of mountains and rock formations, Cascadia brings to life all of the wonders of nature as if created by the gods—an unknown world, totally faraway from the mortal world. This imaginative and prescient creates the framework of our core idea: the “realm of the gods.” Accordingly, each constructing is thoughtfully designed to harmonize with the positioning’s pure topography, seamlessly following the contours of the mountainous terrain and integrating with newly launched waterfalls.

The clubhouse embraces a design strategy that avoids revealing any synthetic architectural kind. As a substitute, it conforms with the atmosphere, adapting to the positioning’s inherent limitations. Hidden within the mountains, our intention was to breed the sensation of coming into a temple throughout the realms of the gods, enhanced by the design of a topped roof that follows the contours of the terrain, the construction blends seamlessly into its environment, with out disrupting the circulation of nature.

Historically, a clubhouse is positioned to supply a scenic view of the whole course. Nonetheless, at Cascadia, the problem of increasing from 18 to 27 holes, with out altering the unique web site boundaries, meant that the designated clubhouse space needed to be reorganized with the brand new course format. In consequence, the clubhouse was pushed 500 meters away and 35 meters beneath the course, making the trail between the 2 one of many challenge’s biggest challenges. To handle this, we dropped the standard horizontal format and adopted a vertical configuration that responds to the positioning’s steep slope. In doing so, the structure itself connects every degree naturally.

As guests transfer by means of every distinct and crafted degree, they naturally make their approach towards the course. This vertical association not solely turns spatial limitations into design alternatives but in addition resolves the bodily separation between the clubhouse and the course by means of considerate circulation and integration.

The identical care was given to the selection of supplies, chosen to create a quiet environment and complement the encompassing atmosphere. All supplies used impartial colours and earth-like tones to harmonize with nature and stay unobtrusive. Ivory-toned synthetic marble, travertine, and weathered Corten metal that retains a way of time, whereas distinctive plaster finishes and on-site-poured terrazzo, outline the fabric palette of the challenge. These components had been meticulously crafted to protect spatial continuity and improve the immersive expertise.
