Taehoon Park

An industrial designer driven by
a deep technical curiosity &
 collaborative mindset

As a skilled team player, I seamlessly transition between individual contribution and multidisciplinary collaboration, using clear and consistent communication to streamline development and align project goals. 

​

My passion lies in understanding the 'why' and 'how' of products. I constantly seek to expand my craft by analyzing design intent, exploring new manufacturing processes along with DFM/A, and ensuring meticulous attention to human factors and ergonomics.​
