‘Hangeul Marble’ is an object designed based on the principle of Hangeul(Korean alphabet), in which letters are formed as strokes are added. The series was composed using the shape of Hangeul, which changes as strokes are added, such as ‘ㅡ, ㄱ, ㄴ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅁ ’. Using marbles, a traditional game that anyone from children to adults can easily enjoy, as a motif, it is designed simply so that it can be enjoyed on the table. The rule of this game is to move the glass marble from the starting point to the final point using your finger. The material is made of maple wood and natural leather, and when not in use, it can be used as a beautiful object on the table.
It was designed with the hope that various people who are interested in Korean culture can approach Hangeul in a more fun and friendly way through the 'Hangeul Marble'.
