Convergent Flux Exhibition

Role: Lead Graphic Designer

As the 2nd exhibition in the Harvard Graduate School of Design’s New Trajectories series, this exhibit presented a provocative cross-section of innovative architecture, landscape architecture, and urban planning and design projects recently undertaken in this rapidly transforming country. Although South Korea is only the size of Maine, 63% mountainous, and fraught with a rich political legacy, its cultural and economic reach has extended internationally during the last 50 years. Six organizational operatives--historical transformation, accelerated density, topographical syntax, material identity, ecological intersection, and infrastructural alliance--map the 28 architectural projects in a relational field. The contents of the exhibit are now available in book titled, Convergent Flux: Contemporary Architecture and Urbanism in Korea.
