Interview with Chang Hee Lee

It's a complicated question.

I am currently working individual. (I don't like the term freelancer)

Design is my habit.

I like to build any objects that I intend to.

They all are my favorites as they all possess my perspective

A very silly looking stool, can't even imagine how hilarious it was.

I love all the materials because I could smell their different characters
I love all the platforms because they all give different tastes of insight.
I love all the technologies because technology can be about everything.

Everyday.

Everything.

I feel everything.

The moment when I finish my design is the moment when I get bored to that design.

Depth of design practice, but the concept of depth can be absolutely broad. This question is hard to answer. And I don't answer to hard question.

Very important question. I'll talk this more later.

I'll talk this later with the previous question as it needs time to think.

It was last (2013) November at former BBC Headquarter. I would like to hold my next exhibition anytime except Jan 2015 as I already penciled one exhibition at Manchester.

I just enjoy my everyday life and I think that is the best way to feed our creativity.

I do not prefer to describe or explain my style or way I make things. My objects will talk better than me.

Very easy. A company should first understand what they are up to. Most of companies do not understand what they are up to.

I make lots of prototype. I mean lots!

Bowl, Bed, Toilet, Mirror etc.

Copy others work as much as possible and one day you will find out who you are.

[No comment]

Every rule has an exception.

Everything is important

[No comment]

I just do my best.

It depends what kind object it is.

What is design for you.. And I don't quite enjoy answering this type of questions.

[No comment]

I will keep focus and build my next creation.

I normally work alone, but I don't mind as a team.

Top secret haha
