Home Office

Home Office

Home/Office is like a local tattoo applied onto a universal design. We have been working on using a traditional textile technique to transform an industrially produced object. We decided to intervene on a classic design, the Aluminium Chair by Charles and Ray Eames designed in 1958, and apply to it an ornamentation with contrasting connotations.

The starting point was not just analyzing the object itself but also the company which manufactures it and the status it has achieved. Vitra’s great achievement has been bringing the office home and taking the home to the office, and we wanted the project to solidify that concept through a subtle intervention which generates a strong visual impact.

As a sign of respect to the chair, our intervention is both non-destructive and reversible; passing a needle through the net of woven fabric, leaving a trace in the form of a Victorian petit point flower. Two icons clashing to bring to life the concept of the manufacturer of the chair.

The ornamentation of the chair is 100% hand stitched by a professional artisan. It challenges our preconceptions and stresses our impression of just how much hand labor and how much industry is really applied to what we understand as an industrial object.

The Aluminium Chair is a global product, sold worldwide with minimal variation. The Home/Office project offers the possibility of transforming the Aluminium Chair into a local product by local artisans.
