Seoul Design Festival: A Feast of Modern Art and DesignDesign House Korea has opened the doors of the Hangaram Design Museum for the Hot Style Seoul Design Festival 2004. Design specialists from Italy, Sweden, Australia and China have shown up for this highly acclaimed annual event, which began Friday and runs until Sunday.
It's a multicultural experience of stylish forms of modern art and design with the talent of rising and established designers such as Korea's habitant and Sweden's Thomas Bernstrand.
Sony's special presentation combines a panoply of shapes and sounds. The first part of the exhibit has a large, wide screen Sony HDTV displaying the digital content done by habitant.
A thin walkway leads into a separate room. The lights have been turned down to create a dim atmosphere, and yet the colors and intensity of the presentation and design are overwhelming.
Habitant brings together high technical skill and colorfully accented creative ideas. The entire piece is an abstract expressive clip that creates a sensation of awe and bliss in those who choose to stay and observe this bizarre spectacle, a waltz of shades and hues with music composed by Dalparan.
Although the digital video is impressive, the traditional designers also have a lot to offer. In particular, a company known as ADRACKS caught my eye. Their approach can be summed up in one word: innovative.
