The Sky Floating Observatory – Cloud 360

Situated in Sungnam, South Korea, the “Cloud 360” from Kyungam Architects is an observatory in Daewon Park that literally floats in the sky. Designed by Taehyung Lim, Kyeongmin Kim and Yunmi Kang, the floating structure leaves the ground floor open, and visitors are transported through two colossal elevators to the raised structure, which presents a mesmerizing view of the adjacent landscape. Spreading in 340 square meters, the cloud observatory presents a 929.32 square meter floor area enclosed with low e double glass glaze. Based on the idea of a floating sky, the Cloud 360 also accommodates a restaurant, cafe and media center in the upper levels of the observatory.
