Biography

VIATOV, a Seoul-based design studio, is the creative brainchild of designer Edward Shin. Shin's philosophy centers around authentic beauty, emphasizing form, function, precision, and intricate details while remaining attuned to human needs.
Shin draws inspiration from a rich tapestry of sources: the timeless classics, enduring traditions, and contemporary designs. With an innovative twist, he reinterprets these influences using unexpected materials, weaving together history and aesthetics in his own unique way. His furniture designs breathe life into spaces, reintroducing beauty and intention to objects. Each piece carries a narrative—a depth of story that infuses new atmospheres with a sense of wonder and purpose, evoking emotion and elevating daily life.
