    Warm Wood Tones | 100㎡ Apartment — Entrance & Living Room, Seoul

    ENTRANCE

    Scope: Concept design · 3D modeling · Rendering
    Location: Seoul, Korea
    Type: Residential · Private Apartment

    A residential interior concept for a 100㎡ apartment in Seoul, designed around warm wood tones and a quiet sense of personal luxury.

    The entrance opens with burl wood panels, geometric patterned flooring, and an open shelving unit — setting a tone that is considered and layered from the first step in.

    The living room is compact but intentional. Designed for leisure rather than display, it centers around a curved terracotta sofa facing floor-to-ceiling city views, with shelving that holds books, objects, and the kind of detail that rewards a second look.

    The kitchen doubles as a private bar — a compact wine storage unit integrated into the cabinetry, a marble-faced island with bar seating, and a layout that keeps everything within reach without feeling confined.

    Circulation throughout is deliberate — each zone flows into the next without interruption, making the apartment feel larger than its footprint.

    Corporate VIP center for one of Korean Bank’s executive-level guests, inspired by the concept of Idyllic Haven. Led all stages from site study, concept, zoning, and design development through to detailed drawings and FF&E selection. Stepped up as lead designer after team restructuring.

    Global Corporate HQ — Pharmaceutical & Cosmetic Brand, Seoul

    Two large-scale global headquarters in Seoul, designed for world-leading brands in pharmaceutical and cosmetics. Both projects required translating international brand identity into a distinctly Korean workplace experience.

    Pharmaceutical Brand HQ
    Organized around the concept of Korea’s Four Seasons, each floor zone carries its own seasonal palette and material language. The design balanced the client’s global workplace standards with the local team’s need for warmth and identity.

    Cosmetic Brand HQ
    The front-of-house includes a dramatic reception, a café hub, a product Experience Zone, and a large meeting room. Materials — terracotta tile, warm metal frames, exposed concrete

    In both projects, the role spanned drawing control, material selection coordination, and on-site construction meetings — serving as the primary link between design intent and execution.
