Get ready for a symphony of nature, culture, and connection! Heatherwick Studio has won the competition to redesign Seoul’s Nodeul Island, transforming it into a vibrant cultural hub. Inspired by the rhythms of soundwaves, their vision, Soundscape, promises an immersive experience that harmonizes visitors with the city and nature.
Imagine a biodiverse landscape that evolves with the seasons, a public beach, and art installations nestled within undulating spaces. The existing artificial greenery will be integrated with natural flora, creating a unique urban oasis. A floating skywalk will allow visitors to meander through the space, taking in the sights and sounds.
Heatherwick Studio’s founder, Thomas Heatherwick, envisions a “hyper-physical” escape from the digital world, where Seoulites can connect with each other, nature, and their city’s culture. By 2027, Nodeul Island will be reborn as a thriving hub of creativity and community. Stay tuned for the grand opening!
