Rocking Chair
DIY chair investigates the experience of DIY production
as value. Formalized as a rocking chair kit, this product
encourages individual (open ended) results through a self
governing construction and finishing process.
As opposed to common self assembled ‘designed’
furniture this kit hands the majority of
the decision making, design detail and quality control to
the user. Its value as an object is not determined by its
form or materiality, but in the journey the user undertakes
to
complete the object.
In many ways this product contrasts homogenized furnishings
and replaces it with a
model of individuality and personality…an object to
value.
