In memory of my friend, Sangwook

It was quite a shock news to me.
He left...
Why so early?

In 2007, Sangwook and I had a project together at New York.
He is the funniest guy whom I have ever met. And I also remember how much he cares about people. I was lucky that at least I could spend a week with him here in New York.
I already miss you, my friend.
See you again at heaven.

Ecco Design New Years Party

New York based industrial design firm, Ecco Design (http://www.eccoid.com/) hosted New Year's Party 2009 at their office and they do it every year. I went to the party in 2007 and this year and I found out that far less people attended. I think it must be influenced by the recession of the economy. Many of designers at the party told that it seemed worse than they imagined.
However, as NY times article shows, design is a solution for the depression.
