Architecture in Seoul — where traditional Korean courtyard houses exist alongside hyper-modern cultural centres. Cafés built inside renovated hanok, concrete towers rising from narrow hillside lots, and a generation of Korean architects defining a new architectural identity.
Flagship retail, cafés, and an audio museum. Fashion and coffee, in the rooms they actually happen in.
