The Korean design industry is evolving day by day, and in recent years, as interest in interior design has increased since the COVID-19 pandemic, its innovative movements in the interior design field have been noticeable. This time, we will introduce some of Korea's emerging interior goods brands. Each brand offers trendy and sophisticated designs with its own style and creativity. These brands' products not only add a fresh touch to your room's interior, but are also recommended as gifts. We will introduce Korean brands that started in Korea and are now very popular in Japan, combining unique design and functionality.

1. life&COLLECT

lifecollect

"Life & COLLECT" is a combination of the words "life" and "collect," and represents the concept of a design group that brings the appeal of art and design into daily life. The brand's catchphrase is "The Art of Living."

The brand was started by two friends from college. They aim to create an art + interior that blends the works of artists into everyday life. They launched life & COLLECT to add functionality to artworks and create products that can be used daily.

A representative product is the "Pluffy time clock." This is the first piece we have produced in collaboration with an artist, a unique clock created with Korean artist Hong Soi. It is a tangible piece of art that brings artistic breath to your living space. Life & Collect's uniquely designed lighting is also a popular product.

2. Hotel Paris Chill (Hotel827)

Hotel Paris Chill Concept

The hotel as a "space" for relaxation, Paris as a city that gives us design inspiration, and Chill as a symbol of the "relaxation and freedom" we seek. These elements are fused together to create a brand that exudes calm and elegance.

HOTEL PARIS CHILL is a lifestyle brand from Korea that offers a "chilling out" lifestyle in Paris, France. They offer interior goods, kitchenware, miscellaneous goods, fabrics, and more that exude a European artistic atmosphere.

The growing interest in interior design since the COVID-19 pandemic has also had an impact on the brand, making it even more popular. In Japan, where there is a Korean boom, Korean interior design has become a hot topic and is attracting attention from the Japanese interior design industry.

Posters and postcards with muted colors and a warm, calm atmosphere, tableware with a vintage design, and iPhone cases depicting the brand's image are also popular.

3. WELCOME TO CCC

A lifestyle brand born from unexpected ideas that brighten up your everyday life, we offer a wide range of interior design products that will bring a breath of fresh air to your everyday life.

There are a wide variety of unique and sophisticated products, such as flower pots in vibrant colors and tissue covers made of satin. In particular, products with shirred details made of fabric silk are popular for their unique texture.

4. DINOTAENG

It is a brand representing the younger generation, run by a Korean representative in his 20s. It has built a fan base through Instagram since around 2018. Through close interaction with fans, the character DINOTAENG was born.

DINOTAENG's main character, Quoka, is a character based on the kangaroo animal Quoka. The story of Quoka's daily life in the small town of Marshville is reflected in the products. From laptop pouches to stickers and iPhone cases, the diverse products are popular with a wide range of people. If you know the story of the characters, you can enjoy the products even more.

5. Where can I buy it?

This is a brand that has not yet landed in Japan, so we recommend purchasing it in Korea . You can get it cheaply if you apply for duty-free. However, if you are not planning to go to Korea, you can purchase it from an online shop that handles Korean goods . There is an international shipping fee, but if you consider the time it takes to get to Korea and the cost of a plane ticket, purchasing online is more economical.
