The South Korean designer Seung-Yong Song’s avant-garde pieces of furniture play with function. A chair isn’t just a chair, but also a ladder and a set or shelves or a cloth dryer
“The unique name of things limit the range of product’s shape and function, but above all, the fact that there exists stereotyped function in accordance with each unique name suppresses my imagination. I am not willing to deny or destroy the identity based on the stereotype, but I only reinterpret the uses I need in my own design language.”(Seung-Yong Song)
