Holiday Project

When we learned that recently-opened café Holiday Project was started by an interior design agency, it all made perfect sense: It had that perfect mix of mismatched design furniture, an understated color palette, and, most importantly, excellent use of vertical space, right up to their fourth floor rooftop. Here, the pleasantly creaky wooden floorboards lead you to a handful of umbrella-shaded picnic tables, where you can enjoy a lemonade (freshly squeezed every morning) or the all new “summer latte” (a tall, affogato-like drink). Though Holiday Project is just four stories tall, the surrounding buildings are also low, allowing for clear views of the nearby mountains and plenty of sunlight. It’s a peaceful retreat from the growing crowds that fill Seochon every weekend.
