The new HD Hyundai Global R&D Center (GRC) in South Korea’s Seongnam Gyeonggi Province is located approximately 30 miles outside of Seoul, the nation’s capital...
Integrating the Research & Development divisions of 17 HD Hyundai Group companies, the simple cube-shaped, steel design enhances energy efficiency and the building harnesses renewable energies, radiant heating, showcasing a commitment to sustainability. A central void provides natural light and ventilation to all floors while supporting collaboration among employees, and the ground floor includes cafes and shops open to the community.
Uniquely implementing a "Geometric MEP System Design" the architectural design was informed by operational considerations to create an efficient indoor environment. With data collection points and advanced indicators around heat, cooling, and light, smart feedback provides the building management with information to continually make intelligent improvements in productivity and energy conservation. The facades grid form, the building’s central void along with technologies like radiant heating and cooling, solar panels and the use of LED lighting enhance the comfortable workspace while significantly reducing operational carbon.
