Daniela Fantini reports:
“I met Paik Sun Kim, Korean architect and designer, on occasion of his personal exhibit at Hakgojae Gallery in Seoul, for which we have realized the prototype of one of his faucet projects. I had therefore the possibility to delve into his work and I literally fell in love with the lightness and poetry running through his architecture. Paik Sun Kim studied oriental painting at university and as a matter of fact painting is the driving strength in his projects lightly outlined, but with an assertive touch, including lots of white and black brush strokes. His architecture, as well as his objects creations, are a harmonious synthesis of oriental philosophy and modern aesthetic, of art and nature. We were therefore very glad to cooperate with him, starting a collaboration that we feel will be long-lasting and of which we are now presenting the result, the product developed starting from that first prototype, a project that has fascinated us for his essentiality, purity and modernity.”
