"Locknob"
by jihee kim from korea
designer's own words:
locknob is designed from the function and shape of a general lock.
because changing the system of door handle is not allowed, we focused the door handle itself. then we realized the same function of door knob and lock: both can lock something. also we find the fun similarity on them: word spelling. finally we designed the locknob and create a new word just like a compound word. so we could combine design and function as a compound word, too!
we could seek fun and amusement design with simple idea of locking something.
