Description
Plans, documentation and photographs from David Chipperfield's massive Amorepacific complex in Korea
This book compiles 860 documents produced by David Chipperfield Architects during the planning and construction process of the Amorepacific headquarters in Seoul. These are complemented by two series of photographs by architectural photographer Laurian Ghinitoiu.
Built between 2010 and 2018 for the Korean beauty and cosmetics company Amorepacific as their headquarters, the Chipperfield creation encompasses a museum, a library, an auditorium, a kindergarten, restaurants, laboratories and offices for 7000 employees. It is situated between a new business district, a large park and a small-scale mixed-use neighborhood, and was built from various materials (concrete, aluminum, glass, granite, textile, wood) from the region and across the world.
