COMMON GROUND is South Korea's first and the world's largest container shopping mall complex built with 200 shipping containers. It redefines the conventions of retail platforms by reinterpreting the role of culture, and focusing on connecting people for the sake of creating meaningful value for all involved. Inspired by the market as a contact point of connection, the design divides the space into a Market Hall and a Street Market. The design concept emphasises the modularity of shipping containers and turns them into an architectural icon.
