PROLOGUE COLLECTION

Jury Citation: The principal designers decided to embark on an intensive research trip to Japan to study the country’s typologies, living habits and cultural habits. Their home visits and interviews resulted in a human-centric furniture collection that is full of subtle, sensitive and insightful details.

View the video about the project.

Next, 28 Dec: Jury citations for Design of the Year – Rubbish Famzine Series; Sunray Woodcraft Construction Headquarters; The Caterpillar’s Cove Child Development And Study Centre; The Oliv.
