Samsung C&T Corporation announced on the 13th that it will collaborate with the globally renowned British architectural firm Foster + Partners for the reconstruction of the Apgujeong 4 District.

Foster + Partners is led by Norman Foster, one of the world's most celebrated architects. Norman Foster, who received the Pritzker Prize, often referred to as the Nobel Prize of architecture, is regarded as one of the most influential architects in the world.

Foster + Partners has designed iconic buildings in major cities around the world, including Apple Park in California, the London City Hall, and the HSBC Headquarters in Hong Kong.

Samsung C&T Corporation plans to turn the Apgujeong 4 District into a landmark complex in Apgujeong through its partnership with the world-class architectural firm. The company will focus on the layout of the complex by leveraging locational advantages such as maximizing views of the Han River and natural light, while also reflecting the needs of the association members.

In addition, it will introduce a customized design that optimizes residents' daily movement and living convenience through a community structure that connects the entire complex into a single, organic space.

Lim Cheoljin, Head of the Housing Sales Division at Samsung C&T Corporation, said, "The Apgujeong 4 District will become a project that presents a new standard for reconstruction in Apgujeong," adding, "We plan to design the best possible future value befitting the area's unparalleled symbolic status."
