Doojin Hwang Architects, established in Seoul in 2000, has focused on reading, researching, and reshaping the city. According to the firm, “Seoul is a living laboratory where ideas that redefine our future world cities are being tested.” Its approaches, criticisms, projects, and case studies are compiled in this imposing monograph, presented in three sections: Porosity, Tectonics, and Systems. Beginning with an essay by Doojin Hwang on the difficult relationship with modernism that Asia as a whole has experienced over the last century, the analysis highlights the specific conditions seen in Korea today, and how architects experience this and build towards a global future.
