Old Rusty Ship Turned Into Stunning Building With Trees And Plants

South Korea-based Shinslab Architecture created a stunning pavilion titled ‘Temp’L’ for the Seoul edition of MoMA’s Young Architects Program. It looks like casual abstract art at first, but when you take a closer look you’ll see something familiar…

A ship! Shinslab Architecture chopped off a part of a ship, flipped it upside down, and turned it into a beautiful building that won this year’s MoMA Young Architects Program in Seoul. When entering the ship, visitors can find trees, benches, and a spiral staircase leading to a balcony – all in the midst of the ships rusty interior. It’s truly stunning. Keep on scrolling to take a look at the structure from the inside and out.

I have to wonder WHO thinks of this kind of stuff? How creative the mind is to envision it, and then it to reality! They deserved to win the Young Architects Program in Seoul

So? Architecture is mainly focused on creativity and i don't see any big deal about this ship - scrap metal conversion. Or am i the only one missing the point?

I think its an eyesore and one of the trees has outgrown its space. Sorry, I don't care for it, final answer.

That's an enclosure. Not a "building".
