Haeahn Architecture won a competition to design Seoul’s Smart Work Center and Press Center at the site of the National Assembly Complex in Yeouido, according to ArchDaily.

The South Korean firm worked in collaboration with New-York-based H Architecture on the 23,750 sm concept. The building will have a low height, which will keep it hidden among trees but also provide views of the National Assembly building. A courtyard will be placed in the center of the structure.

The proposed building will contain:

  • A press center with a briefing room and a broadcast facility
  • A smart work center, which is a remote workplace for commuting government officials
  • Supplementary offices
  • Underground parking
  • Other facilities that will include a restaurant, a banquet hall, and retail shops

Capital Improvement Plans (CIPs) typically span three to five years and outline future city projects and their costs. While they set the stage, the design and construction of these projects often extend beyond the CIP window, leading to a disconnect between the initial budget and evolving project scope. This can result in financial shortfalls, forcing cities to cut back on critical project features.
