The Project aims to turn the serious, depressing dorm for single public servants into a vibrant youth startup hub. The space consisted of densely packed units and narrow corridors. Replacing the walls in the dark corridors with glass brings daylight into the dense rooms for a light and airy space. Colorful walls break the plainness and gloominess of the space and create a flexible, historical, creative working environment, resonating with the diversity and energy of young entrepreneurs, attracting the young to the hub for exchange, and prompting young people to return home to start a business.
