I'm a technical and passionate designer who has a unique perspective and insight for issues, especially into water crafts.
My works at RCA were mainly aimed solving for cities' changing with global climate change and environmental issues. One of my work 'Water is coming' is a represents upper aims such as a marina cities' changes due to sea level rising. To make solutions of upper issues, it needs technical researches. Fortunately my experience at Myung-sin helped a lot. Especially about materials and technologies.
I'm a person who wants to focus on ordinary lives and help their problems, therefore I'm deeply interested in people's movement in cities, such as commuting ways or life patterns not only for luxury stuffs. To achieve insights of them, I usually observe people on the roads not only on the ground but also water and air ways.
