There isn't a single corner on this silver aluminium-panelled building, which seems to rise out of the ground and sink back into it. Zaha Hadid designed it, and the roof is planted with grass you can walk up onto. The exhibitions inside change all the time, but a lap around the outside gives you plenty to photograph on its own. During 'Seoul Light DDP' the whole facade becomes a projection screen at night.
