Six Hours. Two Boards. Three Tools.
Panel
Given a challenge by Bahk Jong Sun, the furniture maker behind the Oscar-winning film Parasite, to design and build a chair from two boards in six hours. I focused on pure connection. Each joint was cut and press-fitted, relying on joinery and proportion instead of hardware or glue. The result is a flat-packable chair that finds beauty in what is functional, minimal.

TOOL
The Challenge: 6 Hours / 2 Boards / 3 Tools
A test of design under time and material constraint — clarity through connection
Minimalism isn’t less — it’s the art of subtracting what distracts so function, proportion, and beauty can speak.
Beauty from Limits
If the joinery explains the form, the rest can disappear
One idea, no noise
Two × 8″×40″×¾″ boards · miter saw + band saw only + nail gun · 6 hours
