little wonder is an interdisciplinary design studio, which works in collaboration with manufacturers to develop products, and in collaboration with clients and institutions to design and realise exhibitions and environments. The designers have backgrounds from Seoul, Montréal, Helsinki, Ljubljana, Toronto, Philadelphia and Melbourne. Perhaps our nomadic lifestyle has influenced our interdisciplinary design. We work to bridge the gap between theory and practise of furniture and product design, architecture, and other visual communications.
Our work spans the pleasure of materials, and a tendency towards the conceptual. All of the work is united by a particular moment, with its opportunities, risks, and limitations. To our creations, we bring humour, affection and happiness. little wonder's work has been published in numerous international design magazines and books, received awards in international competitions, and been exhibited in galleries, institutions and trade shows in Frankfurt am Main, Stuttgart, Helsinki, Toronto, New York, Philadelphia, and Melbourne.
