When looking at the building\u2019s design one might wonder where it came from. And Christian de Portzamparc answered that question: \u201cI wanted the building to represent Dior<\/strong> and to reflect Christian Dior\u2019s work<\/strong>. So I wanted the surfaces to flow<\/strong>, like the couturier\u2019s soft, woven white cotton<\/strong> fabric. These surfaces, which soar into the sky and undulate as if in motion, crossed by a few lines, are made from long molded fiberglass shells, fitted together with aircraft precision.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Taking into account Seoul\u2019s architecture, full of rigid shapes and materials, where the quadrangular buildings align with the avenue, the Dior building stands out<\/strong> like a large sculptural tribute to the fashion house it represents, inviting everyone to step inside.<\/p>\n

The entrance is a sort of modern lancet arch, in which two metal mesh surfaces cross in line with the clothing metaphor. Once inside, the customer makes a succession of discoveries \u2013 a feature typical of the interiors designed by Peter Marino, which you\u2019ll be able to see below.<\/p>\n
