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.
The 630,000m² scheme consists of four main components on a masterplan that is organised to respond to views, existing city grain, pedestrian movement, and massing.
An 89,000m² total area retail complex; two office towers (one at 318m, the other at 246m) totalling 270,000m² lettable office space; a 326-room hotel with ballroom and a roof-top restaurant, a car park and basement support facilities. The mixed-use scheme is marked by its striking exterior, inspired by red columns symbolising dignity and refinement in traditional Korean architecture.
The interior architecture concept, designed by Leonard Design, brings the outside in and creates an instantly recognisable, multi-level shopping experience unique to Seoul where visitors can gather, relax, eat, drink and shop.
