Korea News October 2025
We have received a new report supported by GARDE!

Adidas Flagship Seoul‘s Dosan store is a renovation of an existing two-story house, featuring a design that harmonizes restrained minimalism with bold sculptural beauty. Subdued tones and décor further emphasize the brand’s signature sophistication, while works by local artists placed throughout the store elevate it beyond a simple commercial setting, evoking cultural and artistic sensibilities that deepen visitors’ engagement. The design of “Zacaffè” within the ZARA flagship store harmonizes Korean tradition with modern sophistication. Reopened in May 2025, the space draws inspiration from traditional Korean stone walls, utilizing the texture and natural patterns of gray-toned stone combined with contemporary architectural elements to create a calm, high-end atmosphere.
