Research Interests

Our lab is affiliated at the Department of Design at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) in South Korea. Current research of Interactive Product Design Laboratory highlights the significance of 'physical richness' during interaction with technologies. Recently, our research team proposed examples of using personal data as a material for designing interactive artifacts enabling tangible exploration of digital archives in everyday lives. Also, the research approach includes investigating the potential of the embodiment of ephemerality as a method for designing aesthetic interaction. So far, the director was Papers Program Committee for ACM CHI’19 & ’20, DIS’18 & ‘20 along with South Korea’s HCI and Design community. As a researcher and designer, the works have received paper awards ACM CHI’17 and DIS’19, also have won iF, Red Dot, and G Mark design awards in 2019.
