About Seosaeng House
Unveiling Seosaeng House: A Harmony of Tradition and Innovation Seosaeng House, perched atop a cliff on South Korea’s eastern peninsula, embodies an innovative union of London-based Studio Weave’s imaginative design and Korean tradition. This multi-generational home gracefully steps into the hillside landscape.
As dawn breaks, the house basks in Korea’s first light and boasts a 180-degree vista of the Eastern Sea. This perfectly aligns with its name, Seosaeng, translating to ‘the brightening East’ or ‘new life’. The dwelling skillfully mirrors the hillside’s natural slope with three terraces, each rising by one metre (approximately 3.28 feet), symbolizing a rejuvenated landscape.
