Published Picture-book
Hello! 안녕!
Hi, I am an architectural designer and
3D artist based in London, with a strong focus on spatial storytelling, magical realism, and data-driven world building.
I strive to express architecture through narrative mediums—developing picture books and indie games that blend architecture with story, data, and emotion.

The initial idea was to equate nature with the picture book itself, and to interpret human acts of polluting nature as the act of tearing the book — tearing the paper. That became the conceptual starting point of the work.
I wanted the child’s image not to appear evil, but rather to reflect the innocent greed that children naturally possess — something not unpleasant, (because it’s a part of all of us at times.)
Although this idea evolved slightly over time, it remained present and continued to grow throughout the project.

Hopscotch
You don’t need to take it away to play together
— what would you do?
땅따먹기(Hopscotch) is a picture book published in Korea. It tells the story of a child and three animals playing ttang-tta-meok-gi, a traditional Korean game similar to hopscotch, and invites readers to reflect on the meaning of living together.
I sought to express this theme visually by contrasting softly painted scenes of nature with collaged materials such as concrete, vinyl, and asphalt — evoking the coexistence of the natural and the human-made within the artwork itself.
