The Horn Series, developed by Juyong Shim, transforms discarded audio components into functional sculptural furniture. Unveiled at SaloneSatellite during Milan Design Week 2025, the collection emphasizes sustainability through the reinterpretation of obsolete speaker horns. Each piece, constructed from salvaged parts alongside new materials, showcases how functional design can emerge from remnants of industrial audio equipment. Shim's design process prioritizes material integrity and structural viability, employing techniques like cutting and welding. Ultimately, the Horn Series challenges perceptions of waste, allowing materials' inherent memories to inform their new, domestic roles.
The Horn Series represents a unique fusion of art and utility, repurposing discarded speaker parts into functional furnishings while exploring their material memory.
Through innovative design, Juyong Shim challenges traditional notions of waste and purpose by harnessing the aesthetic and structural potential of obsolete audio components.
