Before I begin, would you trust an architecture firm that goes by the name Acme? I mean, if I told you that a new marvel of architectural awesomeness in Dubai was an Acme product, would you call the project loony? What’s in a name? London-based architectural firm Acme recently released rendered images of their latest creation, the Seoul Museum of Art.
The proposed structure is broken down into smaller, interconnected buildings that are adjoined to surrounding facilities including a library, inhabitants’ hall, an octagonal pavillion, playground and exercise facilities. The new building avoids a clear boundary between the existing park and district as a centre of art, allowing the park to meander through the building on the ground floor, and second level. A birdseye view of the Seoul Museum of Art gives the appearance of the crystalline, microscopic arrangement of a snowflake.
