Lotte World Tower - Korea

The Lotte World Tower was Korea's first 100-story tower, with 123 floors designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates. The steel construction bends inward as it rises, and the glass used was meant to be a tribute to Korean ceramic history. The skyscraper contains a mix of retail, office, hotel, residential, and event space.

The Lotte World Tower, Korea's first 100-story structure, is a Seoul icon. When it was completed, it was the fourth-highest tower in the world and the highest in the OECD countries. The conceptual design is a slender cone with convex, slightly curved sides. The pale-colored glass exterior combines metal filigree motifs and is inspired by Korean ceramics.

Seoul Sky is located on the 117th to 123rd floors. The Sky Friendly Cafe and Sky Terrace are on the 118th floor, while the entry and view floors are on the 117th floor. The Photozone is located on the 119th floor, the Seoul Sky Cafe is located on the 122nd floor, and the 123 lounge, a premium lounge bar, is located on the 123rd floor. There are four media stands on the 117th and 118th levels. A glass floor and a telescope, as well as amazing views of the city, can be found on the view level. At the time of the tower's completion, the skylight of Seoul Sky was the highest glass floor observatory. An operating and technical service agreement has been reached between Lotte Tower and One World Trade Center.
