Korean Schooling
This is probably one of the projects I'm more happy about. When I got to know I'd be visiting South Korea I made a big list of places and architecture I wanted to visit. But I'd never expect I would end up making series of Korean schools. It all started by accident, when I got a little lost in Seoul and ended up in the playground of a school. I got fascinated by their pastel colors, their trees, the symmetries, and symbols like the clocks, the national flag and the alphabet I don't understand.
