DESIGN FOR LUXURY & CRAFTSMANSHIP

Huisu Cho – BAN Lounge Collection

by Huisu Cho

BAN Lounge Collection is a sculptural furniture experiment inspired by the East Asian concept of "BAN / 盤," meaning vessel. Originally developed through a collaborative furniture project, the collection expands a model of recessed geometries into lounge chairs, completing a furniture series for hospitality and waiting. Through repeated carved forms, the table accommodates tea trays and objects, while the lounge chair supports moments of rest and pause. Inspired by the restrained reflections of East Asian lacquer culture, the matte black finish softly reveals light and shadow. The table's central slit organizes books and magazines, supporting conversation and waiting within lounge spaces.
