Nawon Koo, originally from South Korea, spent her teenage years in Singapore, where she explored various art forms and immersed herself in a diverse cultural environment. This experience shaped her creative outlook and deepened her curiosity about design’s role in different societies. After graduating, she returned to South Korea, Seoul, to pursue a professional design education in her native language, allowing her to reflect critically on the power of design in shaping social structures. Seeking to expand her perspectives and engage with global design discourse, she moved to the Netherlands to study Social Design at the Design Academy Eindhoven.
