“WE INTRODUCE THE VALUE AND THE BEAUTY OF OUR CULTURE IN OUWR'S WAY.”
오우르 OUWR is a pattern design brand where we melt our own designed patterns into fashion and lifestyle objects. Inspired by Korean tradition and beauty, ‘Mi[美]’, we create new patterns with modern and unique interpretations. Through OUWR’s patterns, we want to communicate with people by emphasizing our thoughts and goals in a powerful, effective way.
All of the design elements of OUWR start from the love and deep affection of our traditional Korean culture.
As a rising generation who lives in the present age, we want to create a new “Tradition Culture" by inheriting the value of our culture and continuing it with our own interpretation and style.
