？Knotted: Boundary to Center

 

Historically, South Korea's Han River, a strategic boundary point, has transformed due to urbanisation, dividing Seoul. We aim to re-envision the Han River as a central hub by converting it into a space that brings citizens together. Pedestrian-friendly riversides will replace barriers, offering relaxation and nature integration. We'll establish a 'Seoul Forest' eco-park along the river and 'Apgujeong' residential-commercial zone. "Jeoja Island" will connect the city and its past. These changes create usable space, a waterfront, and a green network, meeting the demand for leisure and enhancing life quality. This transformation knits together regions, promoting people's movement and fostering connectivity.
