Project: UNSEEN SERVANTS
Furniture series
Description: Bachelor project,
Konstfack 2008. Based on my interest
in anonymous objects, I aimed for a
collection of furniture with the
characteristics of old tools. They
had to be simple, both in terms of
appearance and manufacturing process.
They should not feel associated with
any specific era of design. They are
meant to be used without consider-
ation or carefulness, just like old
tools. They are unseen servants. An
experiment took place to test their
function and to observe how they were
used. Read more about it in the
essay.
