Museumpark Incheon is conceived as an open cultural landscape that bridges the site’s industrial past with South Korea’s vertical urban development. Located on the former OCI factory grounds, the park remains fully accessible to the public and reinterprets the relationship between city, architecture, and nature. The concept “49 Walls” reflects Seoul’s urban condition by translating historical spatial patterns into new architectural elements that structure the park and create spaces for art, interaction, and informal use.

Existing structures, including the former OCI Factory building, are transformed into a generous entrance hall and cultural hub, preserving the site’s industrial memory. The museums evolve from historical traces of former settlements and production areas, offering varied spatial experiences, natural light, and flexible exhibition spaces. Defined yet adaptable, Museumpark Incheon fosters unplanned encounters, community activities, and continuous change—inviting the public to engage, exhibit, perform, and shape the space over time.
