FORGE STRATA reinterprets Mullae-dong’s declining ironworking district as a new architecture of production and creation. Rather than replacing local manufacturing, the project connects iron workshops, artists, and digital fabrication through a shared spatial system. A continuous ramp reveals each stage of making, while workspaces, viewing areas, and collaboration programs overlap vertically. The building becomes an infrastructure where industrial knowledge, creative practice, and public experience are layered and sustained together.
