giha woo: twisted pencil
'twisted pencil' by giha woo
'twisted pencil' is a vase which utilizes a pencil to form the outline of its shape. created by korean designer giha woo,
the design conveys a particular value with a nuance of amusement by using the writing utensil as its structural component.
in comparison with general products, it isn't a pencil vase that can contain many pencils, but includes new aesthetics,
considering the morphology of objects around us.
