In the Use Approval category, Seoun-myeon Administrative Welfare Center won the Silver Prize, Geumbuk Jeongmaek National Ecological and Cultural Trail Information Center received a Special Award, and Anseong Swimming National Sports Center received an Honorable Mention. The Gyeonggi-do Architecture Culture Awards recognize outstanding buildings and future architectural ideas in the province.

Completed last year, Seoun-myeon Administrative Welfare Center was recognized for its design, which considers residents' convenience and safety, as well as its eco-friendly construction methods. It is a multipurpose facility with a civil service office, public health branch, small library, and community program rooms, allowing residents to access administrative services, health care, reading facilities, and community gathering spaces in one place.

Geumbuk Jeongmaek National Ecological and Cultural Trail Information Center received a Special Award for its design, which blends with the surrounding natural environment. The Geumbuk Jeongmaek trail and Geumgwang Lake Sky Observatory, both connected to the information center, have become popular tourist attractions in Anseong.

Anseong Swimming National Sports Center was built on the site of the former Baekseong Elementary School in April last year, at a total project cost of KRW 20 billion. Equipped with an indoor swimming pool and a World Languages Center, it supports residents' health and education. It is also significant for transforming space left vacant by the school's relocation into a community facility.
