Rene

Rene Final Call is a live concert tour stage designed for an arena audience. The four-sided stage measures 28 meters wide, 22 meters long and 2.2 meters high, so sightlines stay balanced. A central turntable rises to 3.6 meters and works with ten independent lifts to form changing topographies. The concert unfolds in four chapters, moving from an underwater scene to terraced rings of turf and cacti. A vertical three-dimensional LED matrix presents a flowing display of lyrics. Modular components allow the structure to be reassembled and reused.

Edible Heritage

This design project bridges 18th century heritage with contemporary gift culture. Inspired by the 1774 Sinkang Manuscript, the work integrates the endangered Hokkien language into a honey castella gift set. Through archival reinterpretation and sustainable packaging, the design connects historical maritime trade with food craftsmanship. By imprinting scripts directly onto the cake surface, it transforms historical writing into a tangible experience. The inclusion of female historical witnesses creates a renewed connection between ancient land deeds and everyday life.

Op.2-3

This trophy, designed for the 2024 Seoul Living Design Fair, draws inspiration from basic architectural elements such as columns, beams, and slabs, reinterpreted through contemporary materials and fabrication methods. Crafted in acrylic, it reflects the logic of traditional Korean joinery while exploring light, shadow, and material change. The form shifts with angle and illumination, at times glowing, reflecting, or casting colored shadows, combining structural clarity with sensory depth through precise assembly research.

Transition

Transition is an exhibition of ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arrangement, which has a history of 1,400 years. The open layout has no rear wall, so visitors walk freely and view each arrangement from many angles instead of only from the front. Sunlight and responsive LED lighting change through the day, so the space and the living flowers shift continuously. The pedestals are 3D printed from recyclable resin and can be taken apart, moved and reused. The level, barrier-free floor gives easy access to all visitors.
