Samsung C&T Construction Division has been recognized for its design excellence, winning the London Design Awards for the second consecutive year. On July 6, the company announced that its "Raemian One Perla Exterior and Community Design" won a gold award in the architectural design category at the 2026 London Design Awards.
The London Design Awards is an international design competition organized by the International Awards Association, aimed at discovering outstanding designs and creative projects across various fields, including architecture, interior design, UX, and UI. This year, over 2,000 entries from more than 40 countries were submitted, with 38 global judges selecting winners based on creativity, concept, and ideas.
Raemian One Perla was designed around the theme of "a singularly radiant living experience." The project was praised for transforming the apartment from a mere living space into an environment that offers residents a unique experience.
The exterior features a geometric design that emphasizes horizontal and vertical lines, enhancing the overall unity of the complex. Contrasting colors and materials, curtain wall aesthetics, and vertical louver elements add depth, while the main building employs a brown color palette to convey a modern image.
The wide drop-off area located underground incorporates stone with horizontal patterns and linear lighting to create an upscale atmosphere. The shared lobby features horizontal patterns using stone and metal details, with high ceilings that enhance openness and spatial perception.
The internal community design draws inspiration from the name "Perla," which means pearl. Key facilities such as the lobby, sky lounge, dining restaurant, fitness center, swimming pool, and library reflect Raemian's unique spatial interpretation and design strategy. Classic design elements like herringbone, mosaic, and wainscoting, along with high-quality finishes, create an elegant indoor environment.
In the luxury housing market, exterior and community design have emerged as key competitive advantages that determine brand value and differentiation of the complex, extending beyond mere aesthetics.
Following its success in 2024 at three major global design awards, Samsung C&T has garnered a total of seven awards, including the German iF Design Award and the American IDEA Design Award last year. After winning for "Raemian One Pentas" last year, the company has now achieved back-to-back wins at the London Design Awards with "Raemian One Perla."
Kim Myung-seok, Vice President of Samsung C&T's Housing Product Marketing Division, stated, "Based on Raemian's accumulated experience, we aim to enhance the value of life and living spaces through our designs. We will continue to present differentiated solutions that deepen the experiences customers enjoy in their lifestyles."
