Ground Notes

Four small surfaces translate wandering marks into a shared tabletop rhythm. Each carries a different fragment of the same visual language.

Proposed dimensionsApprox. 9 W x 9 D x 0.9 H cm each

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

Four fragments of one line

The set is conceived as a drawing distributed across a table. Each surface carries a fragment rather than a complete image, allowing the relationship between pieces to change with use. Their softly irregular edges interrupt the precision of a conventional set. Together, they make a small shared rhythm; apart, each remains a quiet mark beside a cup.

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
Coaster set / four
Size target
Approx. 9 W x 9 D x 0.9 H cm each
Material direction
Cast mineral composite; sealed surface and protective backing proposed.
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
Proposed for cups and glasses after moisture and temperature testing. Not intended as a trivet for hot cookware.
Fit & durability
Sealer resistance to condensation, beverage stains and heat must be established. Backing adhesion, drying and cleaning instructions are not yet final.
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.

Ground Notes, 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

Four coasters; care card. Glass 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

Separate all four coasters with smooth paper and full-size corrugated sheets. A snug folded sleeve and reinforced outer corners should prevent tile-to-tile contact.

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

Proposed for cups and glasses after moisture and temperature testing. Not intended as a trivet for hot cookware. Sealer resistance to condensation, beverage stains and heat must be established. Backing adhesion, drying and cleaning instructions are not yet final.

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 ₩45,000 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.
