Practice Perspective

The designer’s approach treats design as a form of self-inquiry, where internal contradictions become a condition for creativity. The designer is seen not only as a creator of the world but also as someone refining their own way of being.

Approach Concept

The “R01 lounge” is a rattan chair designed to be placed individually or within a living space. Its form is a continuous curve originating from a central knot, which then unfolds into three parts: the seat, the backrest, and the supporting legs. These parts differ in proportion but are unified by geometric principles, creating a stable and seamless structure. The frame and weaving are exposed, giving a sense of openness. The weaving knots are intentionally left visible as a key element of the form, revealing the beauty of connection and craftsmanship. Users can feel the gentle elasticity of the backrest and the structure of each rattan strand when seated. The “R01 lounge” is considered not only a functional object but also a sculptural structure, questioning the role of craft in contemporary design, where materials, structure, and technique authentically define value.
