STORY

◇ Minhwa

Since centuries ago, Korean people believed that hanging a Minhwa on a wall brought in good luck, and repelled misfortune.

“Gilsang (길상) : Living a good, blessed life”.

We dreamed of happiness and promised ourselves to lead a kind life through images that represented the Gilsang. Thus these Minhwa are not only beautiful decorative pieces, but a symbol of human beings striving for happiness.

◇ Philosophy

Amihwa creates interior pieces that reinterpret Minhwa in a modern way, incorporating contemporary colors and atmospheres. It features the flashy yet elegant elements of traditional Korean design, with meanings hidden inside the pieces. The drawings represent a desire for good luck and having their wishes fulfilled. Amihwa strives to not only create beautiful artwork, but provide comfort through bringing good luck.
