korean furniture museum


I have always been intrigued by the traditional architecture of asia, and the very exacting design principles behind them. Not to mention their amazing integration with the garden - which is often as important as the building itself in the overall scheme of things. This beautiful building is a furniture museum, providing visitors an insight into it's own culture and history. Would be amazing to go visit.

circular



It's the little things that draws you to something, sometimes. I can't say I'm a huge fan of this overall building (The Ivy Hotel, Shanghai), but I love the gigantic circular doorways and the fragmented circular windows. Very nice.
