The prismatic form accentuates the hotel location, creating an open and inviting lobby. Completely enclosed by a glass curtain-wall facade, the building appears to change color with the passing of the day and the ever-changing kinetic energy of Gangnam-gu.
Four Points by Sheraton Seoul
Seoul, South Korea
What does luxury look like in one of the world’s wealthiest cities? Rising 21 stories above the fashionable Sinsa-dong district of Gangnam-gu, Seoul, this Four Points by Sheraton hotel exudes high-end luxury.
Inspired by the shape of gold bullion, the hotel nests upon retail space and a public plaza fronting one of the city’s busiest intersections. Its 206 rooms are crowned by a top level of penthouses with open-air terraces overlooking scenic views of the Han River and Namsan Tower.
