Seoul photo museum a "tribute to the transience of photography"

Описание: Austrian practice Jadric Architektur and local studio 1990uao have completed the Photography Seoul Museum of Art in South Korea, which has a twisted form created by stacked concrete panels.

Located near the Han River in the north of Seoul, the 7,048-square-metre museum, abbreviated as Photo SeMA, is South Korea's first museum dedicated solely to photography.

Appointed following an international competition, Jadric Architektur and 1990uao drew on the appearance of a camera's iris to create the building's twisted form, designed to change as visitors move around it in reference to "the transience of photography".

The museum was also designed to both contrast and complement its neighbour, the white, egg-shaped Seoul Robot & AI Museum, recently completed by Turkish studio Melike Altınışık Architects.
