About this place

Mass Studies' 2022 temple and residence for a Won Buddhist congregation near Changgyeonggung — a stepped, open-air religious building replacing a 1969 structure.

Designed by Minsuk Cho's Mass Studies and completed in 2022, the Wonnam Temple replaced a decrepit 1969 building for the Won Buddhist community in Wonnam-dong, near Changgyeonggung Palace. The project combines a worship hall, residences and public spaces arranged around open terraces and courts in a tight urban block.
