On added that” we’re happy that the tree jewels sell out immediately.” They are inspired by this to create additional designs, such as the castle ornaments, which are based on the duo’s recent trip to Europe.
The bubble home, one of On’s most well-known creations, was inspired by the 2009 Pixar video Up. He gesturing to the different variations of the adornment,” This is 100 % made in our studio” continued him.  ,
Additionally, you’ll find a ton of Totoro, Ponyo, and other well-known Sanrio characters in one spot. The” Studio Ghibli” films in turn influenced us to make our ornaments and patterns. The shows are so full of imagination and detail,” On said.
The Little Prince served as another source of inspiration for the designs. What is essential is invisible to the eye, Koh said, citing the book,” It is only with the spirit that one can see rightfully.” You’ll have to follow your heart to the most significant, wonderful things in life. I make an effort to discover things this way.
On and Koh were immediately perplexed when asked how many jewelry designs Okdodoo offers in full. ” We have a few thousand distinct people,” say our clients. We’ve never taken any of them into account”! Koh laughed, he said.
After some reflection, the two came to the conclusion that 30 % of Okdodoo’s ornaments are modified, and 40 % are entirely made in-house.
” We frequently receive insufficient designs from our providers, both local and elsewhere,” Koh said. Finally, we add our finishing details. For instance, he explained that the legs of a bench can be taken off and used as a camera for a camera, and the seat may be converted into a small table.
The duo recently collaborated with a third party to create their 3D-printed renditions of Singapore’s iconic landmarks like Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay, ArtScience Museum, Toa Payoh’s lion playground, and of course, the Merlion.
