​Design as if we present the design to our beloved ones. It is the definition of design that I like most and I want to put into practice. While providing design consulting activities in Korea and United States for about 20 years since I established Inno Design at Silicon Valley in 1986, I have experienced that definition and awareness of design has been changed diversely. Now, design should not only contain the basic principal of good design, 'Good to See, Use and Make' but also 'visualize the dream of human' in line with the rapidly-changing development of technology. Sensitivity and lifestyle of human should become more important design element in the time when life of human changes rapidly. Based on belief that design filled with 'heart' for customers will impress the customer, I'd like to dream innovative future created with design along with you.
