 Design inspired by Korean farming landscapes. Made for contemporary Living.


The South Korean designer Kwangho Lee finds his inspiration in nature and memories from his grandparents that were farmers. His cultural awareness and heritage flows into his works, as he is able to identify with how objects are mass-produced and how they are valued less than things that are hand crafted. Lee explores the relationship between simplicity and complexity as he develops his furniture. Lee incorporates traditions that are lost or forgotten and creates them in a contemporary way. Local materials are used and the focus is on a slower pace of production to allow time to understand the cultural and environmental process.
