Mangrove Dongdaemun Co-living / COM

Transforming Hospitality into Home - Mangrove Dongdaemun, once a conventional business hotel, has undergone a remarkable transformation into a vibrant co-living community accommodating over 300 people, redefining urban living in the heart of Seoul. In an era marked by uncertainty in residential choices, the emergence of coliving presents a novel alternative, fostering a shared living experience within meticulously crafted spaces for comfortable dwellings. MGRV, the visionary behind this project, articulates a vision to transcend the conventional notion of lodging and cultivate a communal living environment reminiscent of home, where individuals seamlessly coexist amidst intuitively designed communal and private spaces, fostering harmony.
