Textual content description supplied by the architects. The Ananti Penthouse Seoul sits adjoining to the Ananti Membership Seoul in Gapyeong, Gyeonggi-do. It’s situated in a area densely populated by a 100-year-old pine forest. I centered significantly on profiting from the elevation of the slope to swimsuit the transient I used to be given whereas making certain the pure surroundings was revered. To maximise the advantages of the sloping panorama the mass of terraced housing was created at a setback of two.4m, syncing with the form of the land and making certain that every unit was fashioned in concord with the size of the complicated as a complete.
Along with presenting a brand new life-style, we additionally deliberate a variety of distinctive spatial sequences for these visiting the Ananti Penthouse Seoul.

Thanks to this facility, anybody staying at this resort can benefit from the recent air by merely opening a window. We managed to attenuate using fossil fuels by adopting four-season cycles the place the remaining warmth from summer season is used in the course of the winter, and the chilly air within the winter can, in flip, be used in the course of the summer season in addition to making use of eco-friendly sources akin to geothermal warmth, photo voltaic warmth, air warmth, and waterpower (utilizing a minimal quantity of water).
