Architecture: Diagonal Tower Yongsan International Business District by SOM: “..American architects Skidmore, Owings & Merrill have designed a skyscraper with glazed triangular facets for emerging commercial centre the Yongsan International Business District of Seoul, South Korea..The Diagonal Tower will be a 343-metre-high office block on the north-eastern side of the district where fourteen other architects are also proposing high-rise developments..Structural columns will be concealed within the building’s faceted glass skin, while a series of shading fins will help to reduce solar gain..” Another impressive proposition for the Yongsan International Business District..
