HOW MIGHT WE REFRAME THE VALUE OF FURNITURE?
As furniture chases trends and convenience, it has lost the permanence that once made it worth keeping.
We lose opportunities of:
- Orientating our body into different positions that we find more comfortable
- Supported interaction to work, relax or have a conversation
- Any “wonder” or personal form that sparks curiosity
- Identity that has been replaced by mass manufactured replicas
- Quality craft and materials
- Forming a bond or ritual with our furniture
- Realistic justification of paying a higher price for a piece we can see using forever
