JCC Art Center (Jaeneung Culture Center)
JCC 아트센터 (재능문화센터)
byTadao Ando[T.A.](tah-dah-oh ahn-doh)
Tadao Ando's first work in Seoul proper — a pair of exposed-concrete buildings (JCC Art Center and JCC Creative Center) just outside Hyehwamun Gate, commissioned by education company JEI. Diagonal cuts in the volumes align with the angle of the road toward the gate, integrating the buildings into the historic Hyehwa-dong streetscape. A free, less-crowded alternative to flying to Jeju for an Ando experience.
