HOME MADE
Home Made is a series of table and chair sets, the basic building block of a domestic space. This is a collaboration between Bade Stageberg Cox, Brooklyn Woods, and See ChangeNYC, a joint Mayoral/Department of Design and Construction initiative that creates environments and experiences that help the most vulnerable New Yorkers move forward. The goal of these tables and chairs, designed by Bade Stageberg Cox for the Armory Show’s common areas is maximum economy of materials and equipment. A sheet of plywood yields two chairs and is assembled by the end user without tools.
The furniture engages designers and emerging fabricators in a dialogue about urban manufacturing and social capital. Following The Armory Show, the furniture will be provided to people in need, including families moving from homeless shelters into housing and those recovering from Sandy.
Thank you to Brooklyn Woods for CNC prototyping and fabrication.
