Building on the international urban and architectural exchange fostered through the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism, the Seoul Metropolitan Government is inviting emerging Korean architects to participate in the 2026 Korea-Switzerland Architects Exchange Program. The program aims to promote dialogue on urban and architectural issues in Seoul and Switzerland and lay the foundation for lasting collaboration among participating architects.

Selected participants will visit Basel, Bern, Geneva, and Zurich to take part in joint seminars, architectural site visits in each city, and meetings with local architecture practices and experts. Following the program, they will share their experiences and outcomes through the Seoul Urban Architecture Exchange Exhibition, related programs, interviews, and publications.

We welcome applications from architects interested in exploring urban and architectural challenges shared by Seoul and Switzerland and exchanging new perspectives and experiences.
