Created by Dami Seo, Mingyu Seo, Songhee Kim, \ud5c8 \uc815\uc548, and sooa Kim and featured at the 2025 YUPD Exhibition, tok_u is a collection of thoughtfully designed objects that transform the atmosphere of first encounters.<\/p>\n<p>The name \u201ctok_u\u201d is inspired by the Japanese pronunciation of \u201ctalk,\u201d symbolizing its role in helping conversations flow naturally. The slash in tok_u represents more than pronunciation. It stands for \u201cus,\u201d reflecting the designers\u2019 intention to create items that bring people together. The collection features four main objects, each tailored to spark interaction and comfort.<\/p>\n<p>Designers: Dami Seo, Mingyu Seo, Songhee Kim, \ud5c8 \uc815\uc548, sooa Kim<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-570066\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-570066\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-02.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7222236028814181\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" type=\"3240f7b911f43d960156a07c-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In-Content-Ad-1 --><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"3240f7b911f43d960156a07c-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The tok_u cup is designed with the motif of a \u201ccouple item.\u201d When the two cups are joined, they form the shape of a heart, visually representing unity and togetherness. It is a playful way to make sharing a cup of coffee or tea feel special, turning a simple gesture into an act of connection. The tok_u Fortune Printer draws inspiration from the joy of cracking open a fortune cookie to discover a message inside. This device dispenses conversation topic cards whenever you need a prompt. It is perfect for bridging silences or sparking new dialogue, making it easy to keep the conversation flowing in first meetings. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-570067\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-570067\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-03.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-570068\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-04.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-570068\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-04.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7222236028814181\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" type=\"3240f7b911f43d960156a07c-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In-Content-Ads-2 --><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"3240f7b911f43d960156a07c-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Another unique element is tok_u Lighting, designed with a blooming flower motif. As conversation continues and deepens, the light becomes brighter, just like flowers blooming. This creates a gradually warmer, cozier environment, subtly encouraging a positive, open mood between people. Completing the collection is the tok_u Chair, which uses a seesaw motif. This chair only balances and becomes truly comfortable when two people are seated together, symbolizing the importance of mutual support and connection. It is a reminder that balance and harmony are often achieved through togetherness, not alone. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-05.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-570069\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-05.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-05.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-570069\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-05.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-570070\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-06.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-06.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-570070\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2025\/08\/05\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Creative design objects turn first meetings into meaningful connections\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2025\/08\/creative-design-objects-turn-first-meetings-into-meaningful-connections\/toku-06.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Each piece in the tok_u <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> is more than just a functional object.
