The Daegu Regional Government Complex was built to gather the regional offices of 10 special administrative agencies scattered in the area of Daegu. The complex is designed to symbolize Daegu by veering away from uniform high-rise vertical buildings, harmonizing with the surrounding nature, and using a low, long stretch of cloth as motif. In September 2008, the district for the Daegok-dong Housing Development Project was confirmed as a new site, and construction was started in December 2009 and completed in September 2012.
Veering away from uniform high-rise vertical buildings, the complex was built to harmonize with the surrounding nature and symbolize Daegu using a low, long stretch of cloth as motif.
It features various energy-efficient systems including renewable energy facilities such as geothermal heat pump, photovoltaic generator, and photovoltaic duct, Low-E double pane glass, LED lighting, and high-performance insulation.
