Sulki & Min: Korean Independent Graphic Studio

Sulki & Min is a Seoul-based graphic design studio known for its conceptual approach, typographic experimentation, and critical engagement with visual culture. Since the early 2000s, the studio has produced posters, books, and exhibition graphics that challenge conventional forms of communication while expanding the possibilities of contemporary Korean graphic design. 

Their work—characterized by precise typography, structural clarity, and playful visual systems—reflects a shift in Korean design from state-driven narratives to independent, designer-led authorship. 

As one of the most influential studios of their generation, Sulki & Min represents the emergence of a new cultural identity in Korean graphic design, where designers operate as cultural producers, editors, and thinkers. Their early posters and publication projects illustrate how Korean visual culture entered a more experimental, self-reflective phase.
