Bahk Jong-sun

Bahk Jong-sun (Korean: 박종선; born 1969) is a South Korean artist. He was born in North Chungcheong Province. He finds inspiration in the Korean furniture tradition dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries, as well as in the clean, linear forms of mid-century Scandinavian modernism. Bahk is well known for his modernist forms created by using natural wood.[1][2][3]
