The former Space Group building (1971–77), a key work of Korean modern architecture. Its dark brick rooms and half-level floors now hold a private art collection.
What to notice
- Black brick and ivy on the street front.
- Split levels, low ceilings and narrow stairs that make each room feel private.
- The 1997 extension next door by Jang Se-yang, Kim Swoo-geun's successor at Space.
