Characteristics of traditional Korean architecture

Korean traditional architecture rarely tends to be extravagant in scale or decoration. The room is relatively small and the decoration is relatively simple. Just as people who make ceramics are interested in highlighting the original characteristics of clay, that is, natural characteristics, Korean architects also like natural wood grains. The male guest room in the front yard of an official's residence with a scholar background was built in the style of the Korean era, which typically represents this long-term interest. People think that a man with culture and gentlemanly demeanor should never appear flashy in the decoration of a room. His room is mainly used for reading and talking about academics. A few simple pieces of wooden furniture are enough. In order to highlight the owner's love for simplicity, a small ink landscape is often hung indoors and several pieces of ceramics are arranged.
