Located in South Korea, the apartments are built using oblique lines in which each unit consists of a terrace.
The building, designed by Korean firm Unsangdong Architects, consists of various community spaces which include parks, leisure facilities, event space, a library, media space and performance space.

Review: De Stoel van Rietveld: Rietveld’s Chair, book + film by Marijke Kuper & Lex Reitsma
“It is hard to tell what the value of something eventually will be”
– Gerrit Rietveld, 1937.

looks weird…
very weird…
i like
earthquake happen
I think I would have fun living here.
It makes me happy.
It sort of makes me feel drunk… I like the way they’re using those sections of protuding space as gardens.. The section cutaway sort of looks like a maze game.
i think its a nice project but i think they should have work more in the facade.
very low quality ripoff from BIG’s way of thinking, cheap!
i like its defferent. hope that base supports the weight of the higher terraces
@as it is: and even a lower quality ripp-off from MVRDV’s way of designing.
f** up!
Tetris-a-tecture.
great,i think its beautiful, maybe is ecological archi
what are you guys [j, as it is] thinking? Large scale architecture that pushes the boundaries for healthiness should be happening everywhere. the more the better. BIG and MVRDV shouldn’t be the only ones.
that’s pretty, pretty ugly.
Looks like a verticle wave.
Similar design to Dubai’s Dancing Towers (which will never be built) or The Pad in that the tower won’t bend more than what the centre core pillars will allow.
They seems have a very good sun study, but the fascade is ugly, the combination beetween rigid box and wave form are not match.
They seems have a very good sun study, but the fascade is ugly, the combination beetween rigid box and wave form are not match. at least in this building
it doesn’t consider how the tree grow, that it doesn’t have enough soil.
Simply fucken’ good!
It reminds me of my childhood’s fantastic dream
sure looks nice but how will trees sprout without soil?
dumped!
Terrible…and as already pointed out the trees could never work with that slim section for soil and structure…very young student?
finally a project to stair!
i love it… different, creative thinking, conceptual… despite some tech issues, which can be solved
oh! my god!
i don’t beleive that they can do it!
i love korea ! so cooooooooool
It looks pregnant!!!! ROFL!!
those trees will not grow. no chance. and how is a 80 storey sky scraper ‘ecological’. sorry
Interesting interior arrangement, the facade is not working for me at all….
