Bringing new ideas to life in the food and drink-iverse.

Environmental lifestyle expert Danny Seo calls his eco-friendly way of living “Simply Green.” Through his best-selling books, television programs, products, magazine columns and his how-to lifestyle lectures, Danny Seo continues to share the creative ideas that have made him one of America’s leading lifestyle authorities on modern, eco-friendly living.

Emerging South Korean designer Jeonghwa Seo’s deceptively simple furniture reflects both the influence of the Eastern culture in which he was raised and the cues he picked up from his instructors and peers at the Design Academy Eindhoven, where he received a master’s degree in 2010. “My style is focused on the basic principles of design,” he says, “such as form, structure, and materiality.” For his graduation project, he teamed with Hanna Chung to produce the Ripple Effect tea table, which has a thin layer of water on its earthenware top. Every time a cup or saucer is moved, it creates surface ripples—a reminder that small gestures can have outsize influence on the world. His Obstruction line of brass tableware, including a two-spouted pitcher, was deliberately conceived to be difficult to use—or, as he says, “to deliver the stories of obstructions of our lives on the table.”
