THE H Xi Gaepo's “The Gate, Tangent” is a media-based main gate created in collaboration between  Hyundai E&C, a leader in premium residential culture and Professor Park Je-sung of Seoul National University, Korea's leading media artist.

“The Gate, Tangent” proposes artistic insights that go beyond ordinary daily life. In particular, one can discover the unique artistic sense of THE H, which dynamically changes under the theme of different seasons.

According to Professor Park Je-sung, the tiles of the main gate are made of antique stones to capture the subtle light and represents changes towards a new world. The LED light source installed inside the stone tile is a reflected light that creates a surreal design.

THE H Xi Gaepo is Hyundai E&C’s fourth THE H site completed last month and is said to be the culmination of high-end housing in collaboration with world-class artists, including its specialized exterior design.
