Second chance for everyone: Who [produces] a Korean banner story - Nookkak Product Designer

Date2023-10-13

Nookkak is preparing for this Hangul Day exhibition pop-up.
There was something I really wanted to tell you.

It's about Korean banners.
It's a story of people who plan, implement, produce, introduce.

I'm curious about the starting point of the wonderful product we see.
Through an interview in person, I tried to tell the story of 4 teams.

Nook Korea Product Designer Charles
1. Please introduce yourself.

Hello, I'm from NAKK Korea.
This is Charles, who is designing the product.

We develop new products that are manufactured in Nookkak,
I'm working on renewing it.


2. Currently, from Nookkak to various materials,
You're developing and producing products.
Before I joined the company, I learned about upcycling.
Did you have a good understanding?

I had some thoughts about upcycling,
The experience of making upcycling products by yourself
I haven't seen them before.

Usually, when you think of a bag, it's leather.
You think of materials such as fabric.
Before joining the company, I was mostly exposed to these materials.
They're making products with rough banners.
It was very interesting when I thought about it.

3. When you design a product with banner material,
What should I consider the most?

First of all, the characteristics of the banner material
It's very different from flexible leather.
So in order to make a production,
I understand the nature of banners.
I'm making a product by finding the best way.

Spanish banners are attractive in their colorful colors.
In this regard, a lot of our customers are very interested.
I think she likes the unique personality of Nukkak.

Korean banners consisting of dots, lines, and faces,
When Korean patterns are incorporated into the product,
It is differentiated from other brands.
Unlike existing products and Nook's Spanish banner products,
I think it's a new approach.

4. Hangeul banners are used as products from Nukkak.
I'm curious about the process until it was born.

First, before the banners used by institutions and businesses are closed,
I'm asking if I can donate and receiving donations.
Check the banner even on the street so that nice banners don't get thrown away easily.
I get information from customers.

The banner at a museum is so nice!
Can I make a click product with this banner?'
I'm so thankful.

Banners that were exposed to various contamination of foreign substances
It will be cleaned.
PVC banners are waterproof.
I clean it myself with my hands.

To apply the cleaned banner to the product,
Select a graphic.
It's the process of finding the most attractive part when it's finished with a product.

After cutting the selected parts,
It's a one-and-a-kind product.

5. As a product designer, from Nookkak,
What more products do you want to make?

Although the limitation is clear due to the nature of the material of banners,
That's how attractive it is.
It's hard to make up for the limitations and make them useful.
It's quite an interesting work.

It's a material that I have second chance as a product designer.
I would like to visit you with a variety of products that are more complete.
