Foliage covered building by Mass Studies


Seoul, South Korea

Belgian Fashion Designer Ann Demeulemeester's store is absoluelt covered in plants and foliage in a living wall that takes it to the extreme!! External and internal walls are living which creates a feeling that the building is 'growing up from underneath the greenery'.

The building is 3 floors tall, with Ann Demeulemeester's store on the first floor, restaurant on the third and a 'multi-shop' in the basement. Seoul-based designers, Mass Studies Architects wanted to incorporate as much nature into the building, considering the building's low-elevation, high density urban environment.
