The new Ledongil Workshop's most notable works is the LWA0 Audio, Dong-il Lee's first audio system. Created from stainless steel, this austere audio system has delighted design and hi-fi enthusiasts with its unconventional approach.

Ledongil Workshop, an independent label founded by Dong-il Lee, is based in Seoul, South Korea, and focuses on creating personal works that explore various design and artistic expressions. Ledongil Workshop sets itself apart from its sister company, Creative Studio Unravel, which specializes in commercial design projects. Instead, Ledongil Workshop is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of design by exploring new ideas and concepts.

One of the things that sets Ledongil Workshop apart is the use of raw, unprocessed materials in the creation of their furniture, lighting, and objects. Dong-il Lee uses these materials to address inherent weaknesses and potentially limiting perfection, resulting in deeply conceptual pieces that, according to the Korean designer, are "somewhat insufficient for practical application." Nevertheless, the works produced in his Ledongil studio are so well thought out that they seem more than an exploration of "potential aspects."

Ledongil Workshop's works often reflect the founder's unique design philosophy, which emphasizes the importance of meaningful, relevant, and visually compelling design. From branding and identity design to experimental art installations, Ledongil Workshop's projects range widely in scope. Their designs have gained recognition for their innovative and creative approach.
