A Small Reminder

A low, almost-creature form gives a note or a drawing a place to stand. Two tones meet along an uneven boundary.

Proposed dimensionsApprox. 8 W x 5 D x 6 H cm

An object in development. Product and packaging images illustrate the intended direction; final pieces may differ. Not available to order.

01 / The idea behind the object

A small interruption worth keeping

A note changes the meaning of a surface simply by remaining visible. This compact holder gives that temporary message a little weight without turning it into a formal display. The mineral body and its loose marks remain present when the slot is empty, allowing the object to move between practical use and a small, self-contained sculpture.

02 / Form & material

Considered in
the small details.

Design targets, not measurements of finished stock. Dimensions, weight, materials, contents and packaging will be confirmed after physical trials. W = width, D = depth, H = height. Irregular forms are described by their approximate overall dimensions.

Object
Card holder
Size target
Approx. 8 W x 5 D x 6 H cm
Material direction
Grey and off-white mineral composite; slot dimensions and balance to be tested.
Surface
Integral mineral colour and inset or surface-applied pigment marks; a matte protective finish is proposed.
Weight
To be measured on a finished prototype; no weight specification is currently confirmed.
Intended use
For a light card or note on a level desk. Card thickness and slot angle are not yet final.
Fit & durability
Slot clearance, edge finish and balance with taller cards require trials. It is not designed as a clamp for thick or heavy objects.
Availability
Coming soon. No orders, reservations or release date are currently offered.

03 / Inside the box

Protection first.
Presentation, quietly.

A common kraft outer language. Interior support shaped around the needs of this object.

A Small Reminder, proposed kraft packaging, protective materials and contents arrangement
Packaging concept / layout illustrates possible packed and unpacked arrangements, not additional included units. The contents list below defines the proposed set.

Proposed contents

One card holder; care card. Display card excluded.

One stock carton, protective packing and a care card are planned. Final accessories and assembly instructions, where applicable, will be specified before release.

Protection for this form

Use a small stock carton and a folded sleeve. Protect the slot edges with a bridge; do not insert a card for shipping or force filler into the slit.

This is a packing plan, not a validated transit specification.

Spend on protection, not excess

Shared stock cartons and a single-colour label keep the packaging language consistent without a dedicated luxury box for every form. Smooth surface wrap comes first; folded corrugated pads, dividers and paper cushioning are added where needed.

Heavy or glazed pieces may need a reinforced or double-boxed transit pack. The final choice depends on packed weight and handling trials, not appearance alone.

04 / Living with the object

Made to be
considered closely.

Care directions and performance limits remain provisional until material and prototype testing are complete.

Everyday use

For a light card or note on a level desk. Card thickness and slot angle are not yet final. Slot clearance, edge finish and balance with taller cards require trials. It is not designed as a clamp for thick or heavy objects.

Surface & care direction

Until the final finish is established, the intended care direction is dry indoor use and gentle dusting with a soft, clean cloth. Lift from the base rather than sliding. Avoid soaking, dishwashers, solvents, abrasive cleaners, prolonged moisture and direct heat. Final product-specific care instructions will accompany any release.

From drawing to casting

The proposed route begins with a drawing, moves through a three-dimensional model and a printed master, then into a hand-prepared silicone mould. Casting, curing, finishing and physical trials follow. The exact binder, pigment system, sealer and any separate hardware will be selected before the object is offered for sale.

What will be tested before release?

Prototype checks will cover dimensions, flatness or balance, weak edges, contact surfaces and the suitability of the intended function. Packaging trials must check movement inside the carton, surface rubbing and impact protection. Neither the concept images nor the stated price establish tested durability, waterproofing or product certification.

Price, availability & delivery

The displayed ₩29,000 is an indicative KRW price, not a checkout offer. Final pricing, delivery charges, lead times and applicable purchase terms will be published before orders open. No payment or reservation is accepted on this page.
