6 years ago, I was an optician. I used to work as an optician for about 10 years.
So, I had a lot of chances of seeing wonderful eyewear.
At that time, I was thinking of designing this sort of excellent eyewear.
I wanted to have frames which are more wearable and fashionable in Korea.
And then I became a designer at PROJEKT PRODUKT.

6 years ago, I was an optician. I used to work as an optician for about 10 years. So, I had a lot of chances of seeing wonderful eyewear.At that time, I was thinking of designing this sort of excellent eyewear.I wanted to have frames which are more wearable and fashionable in Korea.And then I became a designer at PROJEKT PRODUKT.
PROJEKT PRODUKT is a eyewear brand in Korea.The identity is morden and minimal.Every each collection has a fashion theme but all based on modern and minimal concept.We've got 3 core positions which are superior quality, good design, resonable price.
It's very difficult question. I can say designing is a large part of my life.Sometimes it gives me more stress but I feel so many other things through my design. After rough times, I was able to work with good people and even now.
As I talked, we have a theme that is included in fashion category.I like designing and reflect fashion theme to the collection .
My favorite frames are‘MC-10' because it's the frames showing our own identity and mood.
My first design is 'S-5'.
I don't have special material / platform / technology.But I try to choose material / platform / technology that express PP's identity and philosophy every collections.
I come up with creative ideas when I see something good product or place.Thay make me more creative and motivated.
I focus on completeness of a design all the times.
I have many feelings when I design but, mostly happiniess.
Mostly excited!
When we head for the same goal and have a good result.
I consider bad aspects first.
I think designers have social responsibilities so we have to suggest trustful and believable design for people.
I think it's too fast so I'm a bit worried. But, people have ablitiy to find good things so they will be able to make good designs in the future.
We exhibited at 2018 MIDO and will be attending at 2018 SILMO.
I like to search for vintage frames and it gives me a lot of good sources and ideas.
Frames which are superior-quality and good-wearable with cool design.
I live in Seoul. Since we've got a lot of cool and attractive things, I have many chances of seeing cool stuff.
I try to enjoy my working with co-workers.
I think a company has to provide designers with more time to experience something new and fresh.
1. We decide a collection theme for every year.2. line-up3. Design
Wastebasket / Scissors / Cup / Cabinet / Pajama
Work with good people
I'm a young designer, too.
If you became a designer by your own decision, I'm sure you felt mostly happiness and exhilaration.
Comfortable
Communication
I mostly use 'Illustrator', note and pen for design
I normally sleep when I'm so stressed out.
It depends. It can be a few hours or more than one week.
Source of inspiration
Experience working as an optician
People who understand our own identity and philosophy.
I like the period we have a meeting for setting theme.Sometimes, only listening to others is cool and helpful. It can be a great breakthrough for design.
We will create more creative and cool stuff sych as video and photo for next collection.
I work as a team.
The designs for 2019 collection are already ready!
