designer Seungji Moon has been recognized for her collaborations with world-class brands such as COS and Blue Bottle. Her artist label TeamVirals has launched its first furniture brand, HAVAGOODEN, and opened a showroom dedicated to its philosophy, HAVAGOODEN Seoul House, in Hannam-dong, Seoul. this is where the story of this new brand, which debuted at the 2025 Seoul Living Design Fair and won the Living Design Award, begins.
Home for Good: Furniture for a good home
born out of the affectionate greeting “Have a good one,” Habagooden focuses on the time spent at home, where the day begins and ends. rather than being the star of the show, their furniture is a supporting character that blends seamlessly into the space and the user’s daily routine. stripped of unnecessary ornamentation and stripped down to its essentials, the design is centered on user comfort. the ‘Nap Sofa’, with its carefully angled armrests that invite a relaxing nap, as its name suggests, is an iconic example of Habaguden’s philosophy.
time Under the Roof: The Story of the Hannam-dong Showroom
in line with the concept of “home,” Habagooden Seoul House is designed to create a relaxed and flexible atmosphere that feels like visiting a friend’s house. Spread across two floors, the furniture is arranged naturally like a real living space, without specific compartments, to help visitors easily immerse themselves in the brand’s story.
particularly impressive is the ‘raw’ aesthetic, which utilizes the walls and ceilings of the existing building. the exposed concrete and time-worn walls are paired with Habagooden’s stripped-down furniture, creating a synergy that is both honest and comfortable. “It’s like building a house with the word Habagooden on the roof and opening the door for the first time,” says designer Seungji Moon, “I want to talk about the time under the roof that is repeated every day and passes by without realizing it’s special.”
you can visit Habagooden Seoul House through a Naver reservation, or you can stop by while walking around Hannam-dong. it’s more than just a showroom that sells furniture, it’s a community space where people who love furniture gather to communicate and find new inspiration. If you’re curious about the “good way of life” that Moon Seung-ji proposes, knock on the door.
