Jasoo Rug: (Fabric, multicolor) 120 x 100 x 5 cm Jasoo Stool: (fabric, silk, black) 30 x Ø 42 cm Heritage: Korea Unique piece Rug and stool combination inspired by an old Korean phrase “When the tiger used to smoke” meaning “once upon a time”, and humor from folk paintings of bunnies holding the pipe for the tiger in horror. Jasoo – Korean embroidery is one of the representative oriental embroidery and has all the general characteristics of oriental embroidery. This piece is a collaboration of two generations – Rug is made by HyunJi Kim, a young tufting artist working in Seoul, and the embroidery is done by Bokhee Gwak, a skillful craftsman in Gyeonggi-do. When Tiger Used to Smoke: Collection implies the idea of long-term sustainability by working with masters of each field who deserve much more recognition and incorporating modern furniture design with our traditional culture to make it more approachable. ______ WKND Lab, a duo designer studio founded by Eunji Jun and Halin Lee. WKND Lab’s work field varies from material research, object, to furniture design. All with material-driven narratives to tell our philosophy about relationships between design, humans, and nature.The studio pursues simple design that reflects the beautiful texture and color of the founded material. With their designed objects, they aim to introduce and deliver narratives into peoples' lifestyles, suggesting not just esthetic but also sustainable alternatives. Wkend Lab believe that the users have a deep thirst to re-invent forgotten materials and craftsmanship. As Korean designers they believe that their culture has far more to offer than Kpop and K-dramas. The designers want to go beyond the conventional representation of traditional craft techniques, they would like to propose a new way of looking from a new perspective combined with the contemporary aesthetics that they pursue.
