Recreation City
In today's urban landscape, personal achievements and city progress are measured by time, distance, and health status. Exercise and leisure have been intertwined with city life throughout history, from ancient Babylonian parks to 16th-century Italian Piazzas. As cities evolve, the importance of recreation destinations becomes evident. Seoul's citizens are enthusiastic about outdoor activities, with mountainous regions, historic fortress walls, and Han River corridors offering hiking and biking opportunities. Our studio focuses on the potential bridge connecting Seoul Forest and Apgujeong District. This bridge serves as a functional and symbolic part of a larger system, addressing residents' and visitors' needs for recreational links. The challenge lies in how recreation and productive structures coalesce as adaptively new sustainable forms.
