“Growing up, I never wanted to be an office chair” is a functional artwork that reimagines the concept of seating with a blend of whimsy and sustainability. This office chair stands as a rebellion against the mundanity of traditional office furniture, infusing a playful and spirited perspective into everyday spaces. Its design aims to awaken the inherent silliness and joy within its users, inviting them to rediscover a childlike sense of fun.
Crafted in London, this unique chair is composed of materials conventionally considered waste, including timber and fabric off-cuts. By repurposing these materials, the artwork challenges pre-existing notions about the value of waste streams, promoting a newfound appreciation and perspective on sustainability.
The underlying motivation of this piece is twofold. On one hand, it seeks to instill a sense of playfulness and light-heartedness in its users. On the other, it carries a profound message about the responsibility of designers and makers towards the planet. This office chair is not just a functional item; it’s a statement on creativity, responsibility, and the transformative power of design in redefining waste as a valuable resource.
Due to the lamination of timber offcuts, each piece is truly unique and would not be possible to replicate two that are the same.
