Award-winning architecture studio Asymptote,
directed by Hani Rashid and Lise Anne Couture, recently unveiled their
design for the FCD Yongsan Landmark Tower in Seoul, Korea. The tower
was conceived by Asymptote and engineered by Thorton Tomassetti.
It was designed to confront the notion of a single spire, instead,
proposes the idea of coupling and stringing three towers together.
According to Asymptote, "the inherent symbolism and reading of this
tower will appeal to the global community and place a focus on South
Korea, specifically Seoul’s aspirations for the future.
The design of the Tower predicts a new century of accomplishments, of
grandeur coupled with modesty and of success coupled with effort and
growth. It is a symbol of harmony, reconciliation, possibilities and
beauty.” It is especially interesting the playfulness between green
terraces and water canals the run from the Han River to different
plazas. The height of each tower has been carefully regulated to create a
sensible design towards Seoul’s skyline.
