Design Philosophy

Good design makes a product understandable

- Dieter Rams

I believe a good product explains itself to the people who make them or who consume them. I always strive to throw ceaseless whys to catch a silver lining on what it means to us and how it should deliver its values.

Since joining our group, Jongyeon has participated in various consulting projects as a core member and has been highly recognized for his professional excellence. For the past years, although he was responsible for multiple daunting tasks, his unwavering commitment to achieving goals has been a great example to other members of the consulting headquarters including myself.
