The New Craft House is a collective of designers dedicated to tackling challenges by seamlessly bridging diverse disciplines like design, engineering, software, and electronics, all while emphasizing the principles of contemporary craftsmanship.

Thanks to the advancements in digital fabrication, transitioning between the digital and analog domains has become notably more accessible. The potential of objects is on the ascent across various fields, extending beyond conventional mass production. In these dynamic times, it is essential to foster rapid experimentation through holistic thinking and hands-on work, reminiscent of the skilled artisans of the past, rather than confining expertise to narrow niches.

Comprising individuals each endowed with craftsmanship, The New Craft House continually focuses on pioneering novel design and production techniques through the utilization of additive manufacturing (AM) and digital fabrication. They also collaborate closely with research institutions and companies, actively participating in projects brought to them for consultation, as they jointly explore the future landscape of manufacturing.

Projects

MBC VASE - Every edge is intentionally arranged at an angle, forming a visually engaging and rhythmic shape. The vase's appearance transforms as it is rotated, and the angle varies depending on where the flowers are attached to the rim, offering versatility in arranging the flowers. Additionally, the vase includes a glass cup.
SOROBAN PENDANT - This lighting fixture employs a method known as "openwork weave layering," which involves an extremely shallow lamination angle. The fine wire diameter serves to minimize bulb glare while simultaneously achieving a gentle diffusion of light, resulting in a visually pleasing translucency adorned with captivating moiré effects.
TAPE DISPENSER - This tape cutter incorporates 3D printed components designed to mimic the contours of raw, natural stone, providing both ergonomic comfort and stability due to the stone's weight. One distinctive aspect of this design is the placement of the tape holder and cutter sections, which straddle the ridge. The tape passes just above this ridge, creating tension between it and the cutter.
