Sangmin Bae’s Summary
“ID+IM” is multi-disciplinary product design laboratory based in Korea, founded by Prof. Sangmin Bae in 2005. "ID+IM" is an abbreviation for 'I design, therefore I am' which is from Rene Descartes’famous quote 'I think, therefore I am' and means our design directions of Innovative, Intuitive, Insight and Interactive Design as well.
ID+IM Lab is only for designers who deeply understand the importance of design as well as social role of designers based on the belief of 'I design, therefore I am.' Breaking from the research-based study, we are pursuing an innovative, intuitive and practical design for the real world. Intuitive product design, Bio-design (studying organic system and basic form of nature), Green design (considering sustainability and environmental-friendly) and interactive design using physical computing are our design interests.
For designing real-world products, we have been participating international competitions and collaborating with international industries such as Bosch, Kodak, Samsung, LG, Kanebo, 3M, RL POLO. As the result of our efforts, we won Gold and Bronze awards for 2006 Taiwan International Design Competition and awarded a winning competitor for 2006 DesignBoom (UK) Competition.
We are developing new innovative and experimental product designs for a daily life and participating various international design shows and competitions to promote and release them into a real market. http://idim.kaist.ac.kr
