[Asia Economy Reporter Onyu Lim] 'Acro Seoul Forest' in Seongsu-dong, Seoul, set to become a new landmark along the Han River, has revealed its appearance ahead of its December completion. According to Daelim Industrial on the 16th, the current progress rate of Acro Seoul Forest, which began construction in July 2017, stands at 68.8%. The exterior work was recently completed, and it is scheduled to be finished in December.

Acro Seoul Forest is being developed as a complex cultural space consisting of two residential buildings, the prime office D-Tower, and the D-Art Center, which combines an art museum and a performance hall. The residential complex comprises 280 units ranging from 91 to 273 square meters (gross floor area), with 4 basement floors and 49 floors above ground. Daelim Industrial expressed confidence, stating, "It will be a space combining Daelim's residential philosophy, technological expertise, and content."

◆Daelim Industrial Accelerates Construction of Acro Han River Belt=Upon completion of Acro Seoul Forest, the area along the Han River near Seoul Forest, including 'Galleria Foret' and 'Trimage,' is expected to transform into a new upscale residential district. Since Seoul announced the Seoul Forest development plan in January 2003, Seongsu-dong has undergone continuous changes with the development of Ttukseom district, Han River strategic maintenance zones, and the introduction of advanced office facilities in nearby semi-industrial areas. Meanwhile, artists have gradually moved in, creating a Soho street, and luxury residential complexes have been built, fostering a city where business, culture, art, residence, and nature coexist.

Daelim Industrial plans to build the Acro Han River Belt by securing the construction contracts for Hannam 3 District and Shinbanpo 15th projects, which are currently in the bidding process. A Daelim Industrial official said, "Acro Seoul Forest, overlooking Acro River Park and Acro Riverview on the south side of the Han River, is expected to become the apex of the 'Acro Triangle' in the heart of Seongsu-dong."

◆Maximizing Views of Seoul Forest and the Han River=Acro Seoul Forest has secured maximized views through specialized design. The design maximizes views of Seoul Forest and the Han River, promising differentiated scenery for residents on each floor. Daelim applied a three-sided open floor plan with windows on three sides, offering excellent views, lighting, and ventilation. Additionally, to make the natural scenery outside the windows resemble a framed artwork, an art frame design without window frames was introduced to maximize the view.

The interior layout prioritizes views, arranging the living room and kitchen?where the whole family gathers?to capture panoramic views of the Han River's waterway and Seoul Forest. The ceiling height is designed between 2.9 and 3.3 meters, higher than the typical apartment height of 2.3 meters, providing a richer sense of openness and sunlight. Furthermore, advanced systems such as seismic design capable of withstanding a magnitude 9.0 earthquake and cutting-edge smart home (IoT) services are extensively applied. The diverse and upscale community facilities are also a strength. The Cloud Club, located on the 29th floor of each building, is designed as a space where residents can enjoy the most beautiful views of Seoul, including the Han River and Seoul Forest.
