Hangil Book House
Moulding and twisting wood into warped planes that defy the reality of the material, ShoP architects create a continuum of visuals and experiences within the Hangil Book House, only to further weave the building into its context.

The Heyri Art Valley project is pioneered by local firm M.A.R.U. (Metropolitan Architecture Research Unit) on land comprising of six hills and valleys with variation in its topography of up to 94 meters.
Operating at multiple scales, the village will transform into a 24-hour community committed to the production and exhibition of art and art related activities.
Studio residences, exhibition and concert halls, commercial film studios and museums to be constructed here are included in the master plan of the area.
