KIWA ll

"Giwa ll" draws its form from the rooflines of traditional Korean architecture. Inspired by layers
of curved tiles, it embodies the flowing rhythm, order, and subtle traces of time formed through

The design visualizes overlapping surfaces, soft shadows, and proportional harmony,
conveying the refined elegance of curvature and the quiet accumulation of time within its form.
