This large housing complex in Poongdong, Goyangsi, Korea is unique in several respects. First, the design of the residential towers creates a stunning and intriguing appearance - and, functionally, these same interesting curves and angles create a layout that provides every apartment with an expansive open view. Secondly, the placement of these towers defines and encloses a tenant-friendly, automobile-free central outdoor space that contains lush vegetation, gardens, trails, and water - including a stream that meanders through the entire property. Finally, the development itself abuts a protected wooded area, increasing and enhancing the privacy and serenity of the surroundings.
