Paris Architects. Recup PT. Archdaily. Danish architects BIG have just shared with us the Cross # Towers, their latest project in Seoul.
BIG’s residential towers in the Yongsan International Business District revitalize the Han riverfront into a new commercial and residential center for the citizens of Seoul. More images and information after the break. Situated at the south-east edge of the Yongsan master plan designed by Studio Liebeskind for the Korean development group Dreamhub, BIG’s Cross # Towers will contribute to the developing skyline of Seoul and become a recognizable marker of the new cultural and commercial center of the city. BIG was selected to submit a design proposal for Yongsan International Business District among 19 international offices, including SOM, Dominique Perrault, REX and MVRDV. The 21 000 m2 site is positioned next to the existing urban fabric in the future development zones of the Yongsan master plan.
