About BARE (Bureau of Architecture, Research & Environment)



BARE explores architectural practice through research with a focus on the lifecycle of objects and spaces that respond to dynamically changing urban environments. BARE’s work encompasses objects, installations, spaces, and infrastructure.



Past projects include a series of pneumatic structures, kinetic pavilions, and self-assembling shelters. These projects were showcased at the Korean Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale (2018) and Hyundai Motorstudio Busan (2022). The AirBeam Pavilion (2021) has served as a mobile clinic for the Korea Aid for COVID-19 Respiratory Epidemic.
