About Us
Who we are
The name Hogsio
'Hogusu' (to untangle) + 'Socio' (society). It means: untangling society. The stiffness between partners, tension in the body, gratitude left unspoken, wisdom that never reaches — we untangle the 'stiffness' found throughout society with technology and design. This concept runs through every product we make.
How we think
Harvest from the everyday
We don't work in laboratories. We find 'stiffness' in everyday life — miscommunication between partners, tension in the shoulders, gratitude left unsaid, wisdom that never reaches. That's where everything begins.

Shape the 'wouldn't it be nice'
Ideas start with daydreams of 'what if this existed?' It doesn't have to be perfect. Build first. Try first. There is value in the unfinished — that's what we believe.

Enjoy fiction
'A cosmic creature as a counselor.' 'Grandma as a teacher to the world.' 'A fictional academy.' — Fictional worldbuilding becomes the key to untangling real-world stiffness. Playfulness opens people's hearts.

Make the invisible visible
Gratitude, honest feelings, the value of the unfinished, the wisdom of elders — shining a light on things that were always there but never seen. Our products are attempts to visualize these 'invisible values.'
