The 'Haze Furniture' project by Wonmin Park Studio takes its design inspiration from popular modernists that include artist Piet Mondrian and Dutch furniture designer and architect Gerrit Rietveld.
This colorful furniture series embraces simplicity and carefully conceived linear forms that provide the perfect balance of positive and negative space. From minimalist seating and side tables to larger coffee table furnishings, these furniture pieces are constructed from basic geometric elements, layered together in texture and opacity.
Exploring the dissymmetry of form, the 'Haze Furniture' project by Wonmin Park Studio features pastel hued material fragments that are formed after undergoing a distinct casting process. These materials vary in both opacity and texture and feature non-traditional joinery details that defy symmetry but instead remain off-center.
