Sohsul Hotel

WORDS Michaela Stehr IMAGES Sun Namgoong via Archdaily.com

Architects 1990 uao and Archigroup MA have created a breathtaking hotel in Seoul, South Korea.

With its optical tiles and angular walls, this four-star upscale hotel looks like a set straight out of a Tim Burton movie. Each room (of which there are 52) is a juxtaposition of textures and moods, from sleek wooden saunas to geometric tiled soaking baths and ancient stone cellar sleeping chambers.

Whether you love this surreal take on design or just don’t get it, you havet to admit, it’s pretty extraordinary to look at.
