APAP open school construction - aerial view

earlier this month we featured american firm LOT EK's design for the APAP open school, in korea.
here are some images of the construction process being built using 8 shipping containers.
at ground level, the footprint of the shipping container structure becomes a public amphitheater
taking advantage of the existing sloping topography. the amphitheater lower section connects
to the existing stairway and offers a viewpoint along the river edge. the upper section, reaching
a higher level, engages the large monitor of the open school for public viewing of the exhibition
content.

Call me a cynic (and many do) but it looks a bit 'deisgny for its own sake' to me.
