Hello!
Hi, I am Won, an industrial designer from Korea, currently based in San Francisco. I focus on creating furniture as a medium for experience. I believe furniture is the closest object to human life—something we touch, use, and live with every day—and because of that, it has the potential to communicate personal stories and emotional experiences in a very direct way.
I am personally inspired by hands-on prototyping and learning through making with different materials. I constantly challenge myself to build and test ideas, especially using newer fabrication methods such as 3D printing and laser cutting. These tools allow me to explore new forms, structures, and possibilities beyond traditional craftsmanship.
Through my work, I aim to connect material, process, and experience, and eventually I hope to establish my own furniture studio that explores the possibilities of emerging technologies like 3D printing in furniture design.
