As urbanization speeds up globally, the Megaregion concept is gaining traction. Megaregions connect two or more megacities within a Metropolis, forming an urban cluster with over 10 million people. This idea holds economic and urban planning significance. Busan, South Korea, is poised to be a central hub linking Pacific Rim nations—Korea, China, Japan, Australia, Russia, and the US—within 50 years. The Gyeongnam region of Busan, Ulsan, Geoje, and Namhae aims to create a Megaregion in the southern Korean Peninsula, leveraging existing infrastructure. These developments could reshape work environments, introducing the “Workcation” concept.
SKM Architects present the visionary “T-CITY,” a work-recreation complex within Busan’s Osiria Tourist Complex. Located at the core of tourism and recreation facilities, “T-CITY” capitalizes on its geographical advantage, offering sea and green space access. Through an eco-friendly, forward-looking design, “T-CITY” embodies the Workcation concept, positioning Busan as a global Megaregion in technology, culture, leisure, and industry.
