Koreanische Hanok Split Bank von Shinkyu Shon

Korean “Hanok“ split bench – Shinkyu Shon
Made with Korean old pine tree and polished stainless steel

Shon Shin-kyu graduated from Sangmyung University with a Bachelor’s degree in Furniture design, and is pursuing a master’s degree program at the same graduate school.
Shon Shin Kyu intends to express the beauty of the material nature through a deep examination and analysis of the material and based on them, he try to combine his experience with the beauty of the material.
Shinkyu Shon’s Split is an exploration in the beauty standards of the Eastern and Western worlds, in other words natural versus manmade. By utilizing both wood and mirrored stainless steel, Shon attempts to fuse the two worlds together in a way that allows the viewer to still see distinctive features of both materials. The pine tree in these pieces was actually used as a main pillar in a traditional Korean house.
Unlike other Eastern cultures, Shon says Korean design was not given the same amount of time to create a balance between their own identity and that of Western design. Through Split the hope is that two materials, so different in nature, can be expressed as one.
