Crafted from over a hundred layers of thin hanji, a traditional Korean paper made from mulberry trees, this chair is guided by intuition to create a unique shape. Balancing durability with a quiet beauty, each layer consists of more than 300 small sheets of paper held together using only flour paste. While Hanji is sensitive to water, it is remarkably strong when dry, imbuing the chair with both a sense of lightness and rigidity. The chair appears to float, cloud-like over a concealed structure and is created from minimal, low intervention materials with zero waste.
