He is a visionary, award-winning Korean industrial designer and serial entrepreneur. Renowned for his expertise in pioneering robotics design, he infuses every project with unique creativity and vision.

After graduating in industrial design from Hanyang University in South Korea, he began his career at VTech in Hong Kong as an industrial designer. He later joined Electrolux in Shanghai, where he spent three years designing small appliances for the global market.

What I Believe in Industrial Design

We are not artists, though we are artistic. We are not inventors, though we are inventive. And we are not engineers, though we bring a deep technical understanding to our work. We are not marketers, though the best of us propose concepts that lead the trends and market. Working freelance or in-house, industrial designers love art and science to improve the look, feel, and function of chairs, environments, cars, mobile phones, and even corporate logos.

 

"Good industrial designer makes a thing look good, and great industrial designer builds a relationship between an object and its user."
