Order and presence in space

Fold-04

In the fourth fold, metal becomes a structure of order, where fabrication defines space and interaction.
From commercial installations to display furniture, SAE METAL WORK explores how precision manufacturing transforms physical presence into spatial logic.
Projects with SHINSEGAE, ROUNZ, SHUMI ARTS, TIKTOK, and ZARA
demonstrate how material discipline translates seamlessly into retail and cultural environments.

A set of stainless steel POP displays produced for SSGPAY, a payment service under the SSG group. Featuring screen-printed messages on brushed metal plates, the displays promote seamless store payment and take-out services at Centerfield locations. Designed for high visibility and long-term durability in retail environments.

Shinsegae SSG

A series of commercial POP structures produced for the launch of SSG PAY, a digital payment platform developed by Shinsegae Group. Designed for in-store promotional use, each piece features a bent, silver hairline-polished surface that echoes the material language of retail modernity. More than signage, these pieces function as spatial cues—conveying value not only through information, but through presence.

Rounz

The initial concept for this modular retail structure was born through a series of CAD-based iterations and early renders. Each revision reflected not only visual refinement, but a response to structural needs, material behavior, and retail flow logic. This phase was not just about design—it was about negotiating imagination with reality, and shaping a form that could be manufactured without compromise.

Welded metal frame units stacked during intermediate manufacturing for ROUNZ display stands.
The components were fabricated through precise metalwork—cutting, welding, and bending each piece to meet tight tolerances. In this stage, material behavior dictated every movement. It was not enough to imagine structure; we had to respond to how it wanted to behave under fire, fold, and pressure.
Before final assembly, each component was laid out and inspected for fit, finish, and consistency. The object had not yet taken shape—but its internal order was already visible. This was the point where the invisible logic of design began to speak through physical structure.

The final prototype reveals the completed intent of the project. More than a retail object, it is the outcome of deliberate material control, visual logic, and manufacturing precision. Every edge, joint, and surface reflects a decision made long before it was ever assembled.
