The Story of People Sitting Where I’d Like to Sit

We must sit down in order to listen to certain stories. From the way people sit down to the images of everyday life, space and the urban landscape as seen from their seats, this book lends an ear to stories that have been overlooked or unrecognized. Author Kim Jin-woo goes beyond chairs as objects to observe not only people sitting on them but also the world around him. In his writing, he puts forward his own perspectives as a designer on various social issues. The author’s gaze arrives at the universal and inclusive design, which takes into consideration a wider range of users. At the same time, Kim reaches out to those in need of help and attention.

While thinking about how to connect the expertise he has accumulated with the life of this era, he challenged himself to write a book that is read by the public rather than a thesis. Since April 2015, he has been contributing his talents as a bi-weekly column to CROSS in Chungju, Korea, and has also contributed to various media such as the bi-monthly educational magazine Mindeulle, Korean Air’s in-flight magazine Beyond, and the daily newspaper *Hankyoreh.
