Parachute

Parachute is a wall shelf made of sheet metal. When a section is in use, the plank of that section drops down and hangs in place. The hanging plank holds a coat, a magazine or similar items and keeps them from falling. The surface carries colored stripes separated by thin spaces, so the shelf recalls the graphic appearance of a modern parachute and can also be read as wall art. Parachute measures 790 mm in width, 30 mm in depth and 220 mm in height. The name joins the ideas of protecting and falling.

Amplification of Sensation

Amplification of Sensation is a public chair made from discarded plastic that also serves as a sculpture. The chair is installed along the promenade of the Han River in Seoul. The funnel shape surrounds the seated user and amplifies the sounds of the trees and the water. The form also frames the view and focuses attention on the surrounding landscape. The material is produced by crushing plastic waste into small pieces and molding them into the seat. The design invites citizens to rest and to consider environmental issues.

Graphic

Graphic is a sofa designed for reception areas and living rooms. The form is simple and geometric, without ornament. The backrest derives from a circular shape extended to three times its radius, which gives the structured seat a lighter appearance. The frame is made of reforestation woods, with Lyptus in the structural parts and Pinus in the other parts. The seat holds foam of 30 density, and the feet are carbon steel painted with automotive paint. The cover is natural fabric. The gap between the seat and the floor makes cleaning easier.

The chair is produced as one piece by 3D printing in blue translucent plastic. The outer surface carries a striped texture that recalls wing patterns and increases friction.

Clover

Clover is a high stool made of solid wood. The form is inspired by the Romanesque arch, and the top surface has the shape of a four-leaf clover. Each leaf is made from small wood pieces left over in the factory, joined in a mosaic pattern that shows the natural grain. The curved legs are first carved by a computer controlled machine and then refined by hand polishing. A special mortise and tenon joint in the center holds the four leaves together and keeps the structure stable. Ash or black walnut is used, with a stainless steel footrest ring at the base.
