The iconic design, which secured a design patent from the Korean Intellectual Property Office in August, is also cited as a key factor in its popularity. It enhances user convenience and design differentiation by applying a 3-degree slanted display aligned with the user’s line of sight and a detachable water outlet cover that can be cleaned entirely.

The ‘Air Garden’ captivated consumers with its high-efficiency air purification technology and unique design, winning the grand prize in the air purifier category. This product features a noise level reduced by 4 dB compared to previous models from the company, while improving floor-level air intake speed by three times.

Its original yet practical design, inspired by tree rings for the outlet grill and eaves-shaped air inlets modeled after traditional Korean Hanok roofs, earned it top honors at the globally prestigious German ‘iF Design Award’ and ‘Red Dot Design Award,’ recognizing its design value.

A Kyowon Wells representative stated, "This award is a testament to Kyowon Wells’ technological capabilities and design expertise," adding, "We will continue to strive to enhance customer satisfaction by providing innovative products and services that prioritize customers’ health and convenience."
