INSITU

University essay from Göteborgs universitet/HDK - Högskolan för design och konsthantverk

Abstract: During years of change in taste, material exploration and context shifts we have forgotten some archetypes of furniture that were once part of our homes. This project is an investigation in how to use history as inspiration for designing new pieces of furniture. It examines what we have forgotten and why. By learning from the predecessors of the forgotten archetypes I hope to have created a piece that will last and gets the change to age gracefully from generation to generation without disappearing.
