June sketchcrawl at Dongdaemun Design Plaza

I sketched the street scene as soon as I got off the bus looking at the DDP across the broad road. Big and dark objects seen behind the flags is DDP. It looked like space vehicles landed in downtown.

Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) opened on March 21, 2014 after years of construction since September 1996. There were lots of discussions about the characteristic design of the building designed by Zaha Hadid at the area of stadium. Beyond the arguments about the proper purposes and usage of the gigantic buildings we, Seoul Urban Sketchers, had exciting time for sketching in many points in and out.
