Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The furniture of Korea is practically unique among the furniture traditions of the world. It is part of a craft that goes back well over a millennium, keeping alive a tradition of alluring and mystical designs that has remained relatively unchanged from at least the seventeenth century. It is this tradition that has made Korean furniture one of the most sought-after styles of exotic furniture by antique dealers and collectors worldwide. Immediately recognizable as Korean, this unique art was only "discovered" by the West in the late 1940s and 1950s. What first captured the attention and recognition of the world was the furniture's elegant yet robust combination of simplicity and beauty. As in Japan, the primary type of Korean furniture is the chest. It exemplifies the Korean affection for wood and wood grain patterns, using a rather limited range of woods in vigorous and decorative ways. Iron metalwork is functional or decorative or both, while most brass metalwork is largely decorative and as attractive as the woodworking itself. Shelves, tables, trays, desks, beds, and small boxes are also popular. This grand overview of one of the world's great furniture traditions will delight collectors, decorators, and anyone with an interest in the styles of Asian craftsmanship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literary Nonfiction. East Asia Studies. Despite a rich woodworking tradition, Korea's traditional furniture remains relatively unknown, especially in the West.

KOREAN ANTIQUE FURNITURE & ACCESSORIES introduces the various types of furniture and accessories commonly seen during the Joseon era (1392-1897) and provides the associated historical, social, and cultural background to help see how Korean furniture came to be. Also presented are the tools, wood, and techniques often used by traditional woodworkers. Rich in illustrations and color photographs, this book will help the reader better understand Korean furniture and better appreciate its role and place within Korean culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since time immemorial, Korea has developed an outstanding craft culture. Its superior quality can be seen in everything from the beautiful and elaborate golden crowns of the Three Kingdoms era (57 B.C.–A.D. 668) to the astonishing scientific technology of the Unified Silla era’s Seokguram Grotto. Even China, the birthplace of celadon, was bewitched by the magical jade greens found in the celadon of Goryeo. Simple yet sophisticated handicrafts handed down from the Joseon era continue to enjoy great popularity today among Koreans and people around the world.

Book Synopsis Inside The Korean House by : Nani Park
Download or read book Inside The Korean House written by Nani Park and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rare glimpse into Korean hanok, Inside the Korean House takes readers on an unprecedented tour through the modern interiors of twelve magnificent tradional homes. Amidst the glass-and-steel skyscrapers and luxury apartments of modern-day Seoul, traditional Korean houses known as hanok survive and play a surprisingly important role. Inside the Korean House showcases 12 very special hanok that have been selected to reflect the style-conscious Korea of today, a country where traditional values are still highly respected. While the exteriors of these homes are indistinguishable from the traditional hanok of the past, the interiors have been adapted to keep up with the times. Traditional stone, wood and clay are still the basic materials used, and the houses make full use of natural elements such as wind and sunlight based on the principles of baesanimsu--which position the hanok in harmony with the forces of nature and the geography of their sites. The hanok in this book all have unique stories that are told from the point of view of their owners, many of whom are well-known architects, designers and business leaders. The book provides an unparalleled look at the lifestyle of contemporary Koreans who are leading the world now in terms of design, fashion and innovation.
