O SEVEN'S BY HYUNDAI GROUP
POCKET PARK, POCKET CAFE
As cities have become increasingly car-oriented, urban parks have gradually been pushed to the outskirts and expanded in scale. For people who spend most of their time in urban environments - especially office workers - it’s not easy to take time out of the day to visit large parks. This space was designed with the concept of a small, easily accessible park, like a pocket on your clothing, where you can step in and out whenever needed.
Cafe O Seven’s, located in the lobby of the Hyundai Group building, connects seamlessly with the adjacent garden. When the door opens, the indoor café naturally expands into the outdoor greenery, forming an organic spatial flow. With a gray-toned base accented by plant elements, the space embodies a sophisticated mood and offers a moment of healing of everyday life.
