Buan Art Factory / Narrative Architects

Buan Salt Factory, located in the old city center near the local permanent market, produced refined salt through the traditional method. This market had played an important role in Buan where the fisheries industry was developed but finally remained in ruins after its operation was suspended in 2009. The Buan Art Factory is located at the site of this salt factory. The atypical lot is deep inside, with a narrow entrance. As an urban regeneration facility for local residents traveling to and from the market, the long metal facade has strong recognition toward the permanent market.
