KINTEX2 _Mooyoung A&E

KINTEX, Korea International Exhibition Convention Center II, is a multipurpose exhibition convention center. The architecture takes an expressionistic form of open arms towards the world and also the form of the butterfly landing on the city of flowers, Goyang. It maximizes the connection with existing Exhibition Convention Center I through the 100m wide pedestrian pathway. The design provides convenient circulation by placing concourse on the 2nd floor, which is a first programmatic challenge in Korea. In addition, the easily accessible ground level was designed as a street mall, meant for a 24-hour operation.
