Interface
Interface is a waterfront park proposal for the Hangang River in Seoul, South Korea. The design covers 5.6 kilometres of pedestrian network, divided into three zones with six themes. Nine connection bases use ramps and elevators to link different levels and to create elevated platforms and shaded spaces for activities. Coloured, separated paths for walking and cycling are placed on either side of a planted drainage strip. New lighting and clear signage improve safety and orientation. Interface is intended to give people of all abilities equal access to the river.
