Seoul is a city in constant renovation, its high density and rapid growth has the city responding by a nonstop city development, usually this development, because of its fast nature, is a loss of identity to the city itself and to the traditional neighbourhoods. In this renovation project the main goal was to keep the memory and tradition of the site while allowing the city to grow and transform. By creating a “memory grid” the project maps itself with voids formed according its conception, as natural city evolution. The new complex is a full renovation of the area without destroying its essence and keeping the project in-scale both with the new Seoul development and the other soon to be developed areas.
