Egattoc Library

Egattoc Library is a space shaped by restraint rather than addition. Conceived as a renovation, the project set out to reveal what was already there—architecture, landscape, and cultural memory—allowing Korean spatial philosophy and Danish design to meet quietly, without hierarchy. Designed as a place to dwell rather than consume, the library offers an experience of time slowed, where interior and exterior dissolve and rest is felt as something gently structured, not prescribed.

Speaking about the intention behind Egattoc, Nam gi Cho, CEO, explains:
“Egattoc is a place that offers the starting point of wellness, where people are invited to reconnect with themselves within the natural world.”

This philosophy extends into the choice of furniture, where boundaries between indoors and outdoors are deliberately softened. As Sun-young Lee, Space Stylist, notes:
“The Pelagus chair’s ability to function seamlessly in both environments made it an ideal choice. In this regard, we felt it could also serve Egattoc’s branding as a mediator, quietly connecting interior and exterior spaces.”
