OIMU is a Seoul-based design studio, whose projects reinterpret the forgotten cultural values and traditions of Korea. Their natural incense sticks are handmade with wood flour, elm-barks, corn starches, pine resin and fragrance oil. Through a labour-intensive process harnessing traditional Korean techniques, skilled craftsman knead the raw natural materials and extract the dough elaborately by hand before air drying it in the wind and aging over several months.
