Land Architecture
Land architecture is architecture that adapts and conforms to the conditions of the given land. It is an interdependent architecture that does not assert its existence and dominate its surroundings, but humbles itself to permeate the land and revitalize its energy. It is the land architecture that allows our human bodies and minds to dwell in their tranquility and to come to a realization of one another.
Land Urbanism
This exhibition introduces architects’ research works and ideas on ‘Land Architecture and Land Urbanism.’ The main contents are imagining the future city of Seoul and South Korea. These are largely divided into three categories: Seoul Green Ring (SGR), Future Transformation of Architecture & Urbanism (OCS), and Seoul Architecture & Urbanism Platform (SAUP).
