Oneseo Choi (b.1995) is a Seoul-based artist and designer who transforms industrial materials into sculptural furniture and objects. Often working with aluminum profiles and fabricated components, he reimagines overlooked utilitarian materials as vehicles for aesthetic exploration.
By blending digital modeling techniques with precise fabrication processes—such as CNC milling and laser cutting—Choi constructs modular, architectural forms that challenge traditional boundaries between art and design. His work often incorporates subtle irony or humor, prompting viewers to reconsider their assumptions about form, function, and hierarchy in everyday objects.
Rather than focusing solely on utility, Choi seeks to create a distinct visual language—one that emerges from the tension between engineered structure and poetic expression. His practice rearranges familiar perceptions and redefines what functional objects can be.

pattern of industry
Pattern of Industry is a furniture series that highlights the geometric patterns formed by the repetitive arrangement of cross-sections of aluminum profiles—functional materials commonly used in industrial fields. These cross-sections, typically hidden in their practical applications, are the inevitable outcome of functional design. However, in this series, they are reimagined as new objects, offering unexpected aesthetic experiences and finding a fresh presence in our daily lives.
