Gallery Yeh at Seoul, Korea

June 30, 2010 from fabiano's blog

I believe that galleries and museums are projects where architects can release all their imagination and creativity to show new ways of seeing and doing buildings. This project by Unsangdong Architects uses the Gallery Yeh to do exactly that, and they manage to show all the "lightness" we can get from concrete.

A fantastic building located in Seoul, Korea that is brilliant since its volume conception, internal areas composition to the material choices. The concept of "empty and full plans" with glass create what they call a "Skinscape", like a skin with some open parts where we can see other elements, creating combinations of skin and structure, skin and space, skin and glass and so on. We can not see much of the interiors, but the small parts that we see show that the space is wide and simple, giving the attention to the pieces in exhibition.

Reader Tutorial: Easy HDR Technique by Cristian Iancu
Big shout out to Trey Ratcliff for clearing things up for me with HDR’s--he has a great tutorial and I will always be a fan of his amazing work--to Nicalai, for taking this wonderful picture and, last but not least, to Abduzeedo for making this public. We start from this original picture, that my good friend Nicalai took on a night in Milano. First, we want to add some cool night tint to this. So, we lower the Temperature a bit, let’s say -32 and play with the other sliders as you see fit.

Book Suggestion

Book Suggestion: Brazilian Graphic Design Timeline
Book Suggestion: Timeline of Graphic Design in Brazil
As the name implies, this book (but I dare call a Bible) tells the story of graphic design in Brazil in a very intelligent way and brings a wealth of incredible images and with a touch of nostalgia for most Brazilians.
