Seoul 100 years later, drawing the Land Architecture
Examining the future and future direction of urban architecture is like designing the future of a house where we should live for a long time. The Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism is an important international event where such diverse blueprints come and go. The theme of the 4th Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism to be held in 2023 is 「Land Architecture, Land Urbanism: City of mountain ranges, waterways, and wind breezes: drawing of the Seoul’s Next 100 years」, and it is meaningful as it presents a detailed master plan from an eco-friendly, long-term perspective.
At the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2023, architect Byoung Soo Cho, known for eco-friendly architecture, will be the general director, joined by five experienced curators (Chun, Eui Young, Sara Kim, Leif Høgfeldt Hansen, Jinyoung Lim, and Sang Hoon Youm). At the Biennale event held at the Songhyeon-dong site, which preserves the original scenery of Seoul, and around the Seoul Hall of Architecture and Urbanism, various exhibitions, lectures, forums, and citizen participation programs capturing the topic from a deeper perspective will be held.
