Byoung Cho

â€œChoâ€™s work . . . exudes a dramatic sense of timelessnessâ€•as though it were built centuries ago.â€ â€•Dwell
Widely considered Koreaâ€™s most important architect, Byoung Cho has created iconic buildings, art and cultural centers, schools, health facilities, and residences in Korea, Malaysia, Japan, and the United States. He is the recipient of Koreaâ€™s major architectural awards and has been a visiting lecturer at Harvard and Columbia universities.

Influenced by Koreaâ€™s rich aesthetic tradition, Cho uses understated forms to design buildings that offer powerful yet subtle experiences for their inhabitants. This exquisitely designed bookâ€•the first on Byoung Cho in Englishâ€•features the architectâ€™s most acclaimed projects, including Twin Tree Towers (2010), his iconic buildings located adjacent to the royal Gyeongbok Palace in Seoul, which embody Choâ€™s fascination with the relationship between ancient history and modernity. 400 illustrations in color and black and white
