Commissioned by Samsung Securities and designed by super-architect Rafael Vinoly, the Jongro Millenium Tower was completed in 1999.The tower’s unique construction is supported by 3 cores with exposed steel girders. A dramatic floor gap from the 23rd to 30th floor gives the building some heavy duty feng shui credibility.At the very top is a café and restaurant, designed by noted French interior designer Philippe Starck.The views from the Top Cloud Café are charmingly personal and give its diners a much more intimate perspective of Seoul than the stratospheric views from the overcrowded N Seoul Tower.
