Default Iconic Architecture Design That Captivates a Nation

Impressive new Cross Hashtag Towers in South Korea

The hashtag - or # - has become the most recognisable symbol of social networking since the explosion of popular website Twitter.
Now its stellar growth has prompted architects to embark on an ambitious project - building a skyscraper shaped like a hashtag in
South Korea.

The impressive structure will be formed of two towers with two bridges connecting them, giving the building its distinctive shape.
It will include 600 apartments, a library and a gallery, while the top of the towers will be covered in gardens for residents.

The gravity-defying Cross # Towers will stand in Seoul, South Korea, as a gateway to the new Yongsan business district. The unique
idea for the building was proposed by Danish architects Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG).
