We explore how design can bridge the gap between people and emerging science and technology.


デザインを通じて、人々と新たな科学・技術との距離を縮める方法を探求しています。


Our work is always carried out in collaboration—primarily with scientists and engineers—and is currently guided by two goals:

  • To make science and technology more accessible and inclusive.
  • To design technologies that inspire and support people in navigating the challenges of a changing world.

Through every collaboration, we expand the potential of design—believing that this collaborative approach can help shape a future that is more inclusive, accessible, and sustainable, not only for humans but also for more-than-human beings.

Our work is closely affiliated with the DLX Design Lab, particularly through the Treasure Hunting projects.

2021-2022
Tidal Space is an interactive installation for work-from-home parents, featuring motorized curtains and a foldable acoustic panel. Triggered by screen activity, it adjusts to support focused work, quick check-ins with children, or playful interaction—enhancing the home office experience for the whole family.

This project was created as part of the cross-cultural design program Living and Working from Home, commemorating the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between South Korea and the Netherlands.
