TCA Architects worked hand in hand with the leadership of Halla and their Korean architect to not only re-design their high rises, but really transform the way the Korean culture views multifamily housing. The international collaboration explored new ways of land planning and building orientation to maximum light, air, and river views. The unique green spaces and gardens between buildings were a main focus and were given extra attention so that they were visually interesting from above and at ground level in Icheon, Chungla, Korea.
