Scalp Air
Beauty Device
2024


Scalp Air is designed to deliver airflow directly to the scalp, reaching beneath the hair rather than simply drying its surface. Its structure gently separates the hair as air flows through, allowing moisture at the roots to dry more effectively. This creates a faster, more comfortable drying experience focused on scalp care.

Woojin Jang is an industrial designer born and raised in South Korea, now based in Seoul. He is interested in finding new perspectives in familiar objects. He makes objects that invite people to touch, discover, and play. When he isn't designing, he's probably playing bass, listening to music, making something unnecessary, or drinking coffee.

During his time at Konkuk University, he gained broad experience in design and manufacturing through Samsung Design Membership and various industry-sponsored projects. His work has also been recognized internationally through awards including iF, Red Dot, and IDEA.

After graduating from the Department of Industrial Design at Konkuk University in 2025, he has been working as a multidisciplinary designer whose practice spans industrial design, graphic design, and branding.
