Yaekwon Sean Lee

I am an Industrial Designer and current senior at RISD. I strive to create solutions that blend aesthetics and technical clarity. I have a strong foundation in hands-on prototyping and 3D Modeling, which allows me to move fluidly from digital models to physical outcomes. Throughout my years at RISD, I've developed a passion for product design engineering.

I’m drawn to product design engineering because it reveals the underlying logic of how things work and how thoughtful design can elevate that function into something elegant and purposeful. Whether I’m iterating through quick mock-ups or refining a final prototype, I enjoy exploring materials, testing mechanisms, and building things that reveal how a design truly behaves.
