I’m Mina

Hello! I’m Mina, the founder and creative mind behind PaCoMin. With a background in architecture, a passion for the calming essence of Asian, particularly Korean, design principles, and a love for all things cozy and calming, I’ve combined my interests to create a unique space where design meets comfort. I created this space to share my insights on creating peaceful and cozy environments.

Why PaCoMin?

The name PaCoMin is a blend of what inspires me:

  • Pa: Like a panda, I believe in taking life at a slower pace, enjoying moments of tranquility, and finding calm amidst the everyday hustle.
  • Co: Coffee embodies comfort—a warm, inviting feeling like being wrapped in a snug space.
  • Min: And of course, Mina – that’s me!

Together, these elements capture my philosophy: combining harmony, simplicity, and a personal touch in every space.

  • Pa: Like a panda, I believe in taking life at a slower pace, enjoying moments of tranquility, and finding calm amidst the everyday hustle.
  • Co: Coffee symbolizes warmth and comfort—those cherished moments of holding a warm cup in a snug space.
  • Min: And of course, Mina – that's me!

My Journey and Vision

I studied architecture at university, where I became fascinated by how design can influence our emotions and well-being. Inspired by Asian and Korean design principles, I focus on how spaces can foster comfort and tranquility through thoughtful layouts and the use of natural elements. I love the way these styles incorporate natural elements, simplicity, and a sense of calm into everyday living.

What You’ll Find Here

At PaCoMin, I blend my architectural expertise with a love for creating cozy, functional spaces. My content on YouTube and my blog, explores the ways in which architectural elements can be used to design spaces that feel both practical and inviting. While I don’t delve deeply into interior design specifics, I do share how the thoughtful arrangement of furniture and attention to layout can make any space more livable and aligned with your personal style.

Whether it’s a room analysis from a popular K-drama or practical tips for maximizing space in your home, my goal is to inspire you to see the potential in every corner of your living environment.
