The Seoul Botanical Garden project was iroduced in 2021. Unlike traditional greenhouses with domed and convex roofs, the designers of this garden have built a roof with a diameter of 100 meters and a concave structure whose ceer is lower than its edges. This innovative design not only visually resembles the petals of “Rose of Sharon” (a type of marshmallow native to Korea), but also creates a three-dimensional and immersive experience for visitors.
