Heatherwick Studio has proposed a striking renovation of the famous Hanwha Galleria shopping space in Seoul. The design calls for two symmetrically opposed twin buildings, which have a dramatic hourglass shape, with a rippling glass texture.
Topped with trees and plants, and framed by copper beams, the spaces are sure to make a big impact on the South Korean capital. We especially like the glass form, and the way it resembles flowing water. It certainly creates a dynamic new design language that we’ve not seen before.
