Given the site’s location within the industrial and distribution zone of Changwon New Town and its positioning along a vast plain roadside, the design adopts a space truss as the primary horizontal element, paired with four circular cylinders to capture passing eyes, forming a powerful imagistic theme. 

The layout of left and right halls, primarily used for exhibitions, sports, and assemblies, was simplified by integrating stairs and restrooms into the circular cylinders, while the walls were functionally designed for complete openness toward the central courtyard, enabling accommodation of any large or small events that might occur in the industrial and distribution area beyond the main purposes. The courtyard’s steps introduce variation unlike the halls on either side, serving as a dynamic element amid the planar interior atmosphere; during indoor sports events, dismantling the walls transforms them into simple spectator stands. The administrative mass between the two front cylinders is offset to the right, introducing variation to avoid monotonous symmetry while guiding and implying direction for first-time visitors.
