This stunning development is located in the Yeouido area of South Korea’s capital. Three towers of office and hotel space ring a six-level shopping centre, where 300 stores and restaurants are grouped around a series of dramatic, full-height atria, with ready access to the city’s transport system. In a culture where shopping is very much a social activity, we have moved beyond the normal concept of a retail centre, creating a ‘bamboo garden’ at roof level where families can gather and relax.
