Kokdu is a traditional Korean funerary image, now reinterpreted as a series of modern, everyday objects that closely link the rich heritage of the past with modern life. This design series reinterprets the inner meaning of Kokdu-guidance, protection, companionship and prayer-and transforms it into a practical and beautiful product. When a user associates a smartphone with the object, a dedicated app conveys messages of courage, hope and encouragement associated with contemporary everyday life, continuing Kokdu's role as a benevolent partner and guide.
