In the DDP where the Seoul Design International Forum was held, let's feel Seoul's own public design!!


Hello! I'm Yeoul (@_y.eoloz) who will be the supporters of the 2023 Seoul Design International Forum.


 

The Seoul Design International Forum is held annually, and last year, the 2022 Seoul Design International Forum was held under the theme "DESIGN x Seoul: How Design Enrichs the Future." The SDIF Seoul Design International Forum offers insights on how various designs and designs can be combined with municipalities such as welfare, culture, and transportation to strategically promote collaboration within an organization and advance the overall level of service in a municipal administration.


Seoul Design

It means Seoul's design vision to enhance the city's competitiveness and enable everyone to lead a happy life in response to the challenges faced by the community due to various global issues.

• Develop creative and sustainable design solutions to solve various problems in everyday life to create a safe, convenient, and win-win urban environment.

• Leading the world city with innovative technologies and designs that reflect city-specific characteristics.

• By increasing the number of unique design contents in everyday life, it meets the sensitivity of citizens and provides an impressive experience to drive the attractiveness of the city.

• We aim for a design community where many people, including experts, industries, and citizens, participate and think together.


So where can we meet designs for everyone, including Seoul & Public Design?



 

Dongdaemun Design Plaza Design Lab

281, Eulji-ro, Jung-gu, Seoul

Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) Design Lab 3rd floor (Magazine Library, UD Experience Center)

The UD Life Style Platform on the 3rd floor of the ddp Design Lab is a design platform where design research, development, and diffusion take place under the value of Design for All.


So, let's take a look at the design of the company's brand and the technology of the company in which these designs are participated?

The technologies selected by UDP include Heartist, Dior font, Saturnbath, Boksoondoga, and Dyson.

  


 

Heartist

Heartist is a universal fashion brand that has both functionality and design. With hidden details that are not distinct from the outside while eliminating unnecessary parts and making use of the necessary parts, we suggest fashion that anyone can enjoy comfortably, regardless of disability and non-disability.


 

Dior font

Dior font is Korea's first commercial universal design font that can be seen and read well by both low vision and presbyopia, as it has a slogan for everyone. (As shown in the picture, Dior fonts are used for product manuals, food and medicine ingredients labeling, newspapers, contracts, securities, administrative forms, invoices, senior book publishing, and printouts for the under-sighted (business name and various printouts) to help us.


 

Boksoondoga

The power of fermentation as a cosmetic containing the gift of nature 'fermentation'. It continues the philosophy of Boksoondoga with useful changes brought out by time and sincerity, and cosmetics that capture nature.

  



 

HoHohi

Hohohi, which means "Shining and Clear," constantly thinks about how people and nature can be healthy together in the process of making and using products. It seems that Hohohi's shampoo bar package, ingredients of recycled pulp, creative boards, and shopping bags using Used Paper are also pursuing healthy and sustainable SDGs goals.

  


 

Dyson

Design innovations that solve everyday problems, Dyson's comfort through the problem-solving process, and the nation's most powerful HEPA cordless vacuum cleaner keep your home cleaner and hygienic.


 

IKEA

The Power of Democratic Design Democratic design is IKEA's special way of designing products and solutions to ensure sustainability and affordability while delivering good functionality, design and quality.

In addition, second, as you can see from the picture, it has various advantages in design/function/low price/sustainability/quality.



Then, we can't miss the public design, right?

- This time, I will introduce UD City.

In the case of UD City selected by UDP

There are Bulpyunham App, Dot, Seoul Metropolitan Facilities Management Corporation "Ttareungi", This ABLED, and Goyohan M.

  

 

Bulpyunham App

The "Bulpyunham" app is a platform of civic participation for a beneficial society, and I believe that if numerous inconveniences that pass by inadvertently are collected, analyzed, and delivered where necessary, we can create a better brand and a better world.

I also carefully observed writing about 'inconvenience', and it was nice to hear about various people's opinions.


 

Dot

Dot is a design for a fair life, which provides visual information with braille and touch to create a barrier-free world where the blind can join.


 

Ttareungi of the Seoul Facilities Management Corporation

In fact, Ttareungi is more familiar to many people than other items. However, did you know that the public design of Seoul citizens was hidden in the familiar Ttareungi? 

Did you know...!! It is Seoul citizens' No. 1 policy for the third consecutive year, and it is a city of healthy, clean, green growth and convenient bicycles.


 

This ABLED

This ABLED is an agency that helps artists with developmental disabilities sustainable art culture,

Various activities such as production of products using the works of artists with developmental disabilities, art curation, collaboration with global companies, and ESG campaigns provide a foundation for artists with developmental disabilities to become social and economic independent through sustainable art activities.


 

Goyohan M

Goyohan M, a warm technology that changes the world, creates a warm and inclusive society by designing and developing services and technologies that can embrace everyone. A deaf engineer communicates through ICT technology to create a calm, warm, and safe urban mobility environment.

(Goyohan M service is equipped with technologies from Coactus and SK Telecom to provide a convenient and safe travel experience.)



Magazine Library

Passing through the UD platform, the magazine library is located right on the right.   







 

The magazine library located in Dongdaemun ddp is

You can view domestic and overseas magazines in various design fields for free.

You can view 107 magazines in various design-related fields such as graphics, industrial design, interior and space, beauty & fashion, and lifestyle, and showcase magazine-themed exhibitions.


There were desks and chairs everywhere, and there were various seats,

There is also a hair shop-style place!!

(Because magazines are usually available in hair shops, they created this concept!)

 



 

In addition, the magazine library also has Stay with the Record 展, which is held under the theme of major magazines in Korea, and the exhibition displays the past records of , , and , which played a pioneering role in Korean design magazines, in chronological order.

There is also a section to introduce magazines from the representative publications such as the first issue, the 10th anniversary issue, and the 100th issue of publication!



The magazine library is a networking place for reading magazines and exchanging information, and is operated as a complex cultural space that combines various events such as exhibitions and book talk events!


All citizens can use it for free, and it is open from 10:00 p.m. to 20:00 p.m

Please visit the DDP website for more information!!



This direction of Seoul design is that "design" will largely solve many problems that will come to our society with public design for people and public design together, and will contribute variously as a cultural axis of life.



Through the visit to ddp, I would like to see more useful and diverse designs as Seoul's public designs come into our lives and let everyone enjoy a more prosperous and rich life. During the experience, I am thinking of finding out more about the designs I saw, such as Dior font and This ABLED. See Design for All, Seoul Public Design.
