With an extensive and prudent research, Shin Hyung Cho (“DFFPM”) proposes a groundbreaking idea of “Han River MakeMake Project”.  It is a project that closely coordinates the water resources of Seoul, the Han River and most of all, Korea. The MakeMake Project proposes an innovative system and specially designed dome which could store and consume water of Han River and rainwater (of the Han River). To achieve this, DFFPM proposes to reduce the width of the Han River which may enable to secure and restore extra space, time and cultural leisure to the densely populated city of Seoul.

Shinhyung Cho, CEO of DFFPM, graduated from the Department of Architecture at Yonsei University, and studied at AA School in England and the Department of Architecture at Harvard University. He has teaching experience at Cooper Union in the United States and a career at the Norman Foster studio. In 2008, he was nominated as the Next Generation Designer by the Ministry of Knowledge Economy. He has experience in a number of projects, including Seoul Wave Art Center in Jamwon-dong, Space Shinseon in Hannam-dong, Wirari House in Hwacheon, and Monolithic Stone in Busan.
