Seeho Su

March 30th, 2010

Seeho Su was established by Joyce Seeho in honour of her grandfather Seeho Su, who landed on Australian shores 87 years ago to start a new life for himself and his family.

The company echoes its namesake’s history, bringing Asian furniture brands to Australia.

“The Japanese and Chinese have a stunning design aesthetic of their own, which offers a beautiful alternative to the more conservative European and American design styles,” said Joyce Seeho.

Seeho Su’s range is headlined by the Maruni collection, which is 87 years old.

Under the design directorship of Naoto Fukusawa, the Maruni ‘Hiroshima’ collection of chairs is a particular standout, with its simple, subtle forms and smooth woody textures.

Also making up Seeho Su’s furniture range is Shanghai Brand Neri & Hu, the brainchild of Lyndon Neri and Rosanna Hu.

With so much untapped Asian design heading for Australian shores, Seeho Su is sure to be a great success with architects, designers and specifiers in search of inspirational furniture pieces for their projects.

To honour Chef James Won’s appointment as Gaggenau’s first Malaysian Culinary Partner, we asked the gastronomic luminaire about parallels between Gaggenau’s ethos and his own practice, his multidimensional vision of Modern Malaysian – and how his early experiences of KFC’s accessible, bold flavours influenced his concept of fine dining.

The uncharted plate: Ivan Brehm’s pursuit of crossroads cooking with Gaggenau and human connection.

In this candid interview, the culinary mastermind behind Singapore’s Nouri and Appetite talks about food as an act of human connection that transcends borders and accolades, the crucial role of technology in preserving its unifying power, and finding a kindred spirit in Gaggenau’s reverence for tradition and relentless pursuit of innovation.
