SOBAHN
SoBahn, inspired from Korean traditional small portable tea table, placing importance on a curvature which reminds of a particular animal’s leg, finishes up with oriental details and colour. Such animal leg-like shape coexists inter-culturally between the Orient and the Western. Korean traditional small portable tea table gives an elegant and complex impression, whereas SoBahn reinterprets the old design in modern style featuring the traditional concise details and the elegant curve line.

A prominent feature of a traditional small tea table is its light weight and small size to use sedentary regardless of place. This is the singularity of the Orient specializing in a sedentary culture. So-Bahn was made of light wooden material for easy carrying in anytime and anywhere. The size is also modified culturally to fit both the West and the Orient so that the original uses are not faded.
