Concrete Seoul Map

45,00 

Do you know Concrete Tokyo Map? Do you also dream of walking around the Japanese capital following the trail of the most interesting brutalist and concrete buildings? I have good news – you can also plan such a trip (in real or on-line) around Seoul. And let me tell you one thing – there is a lot to see.

In addition to the brutalist architecture from several decades ago, we can find a lot of fascinating architectural concrete works in the Korean capitals; museums, churches, shops by famous designers, and many more. But if I had to point out one thing, it would be Seoullo 7017, the motorway flyover in the very centre of the city excluded from use, from which a walking route was made with trees and benches. Finding it on the map made me reminiscence about how I took a walk there one morning on my way to a shop serving traditional Korean pumpkin porridge…

In short: Concrete Seoul Map is an alternative way of looking at the city. For a long time I thought that concrete was boring, but the longer I sit over architectural books, the more I miss getting to know these concrete metropolises.

"'Concrete' is the term that best describes Seoul. It was concrete that made the 'Miracle on the Han River' possible out of the ruins brought by the Korean War in the 1950s."
