- after an inquisitive demand of a furniture factory in Friuli, Italy, for a proposal for furniture production based on their technical capacities combined with those of the region (Slovenia).
Proposals / research
- the collective: how to create series of furniture based on connected characteristics instead of formal repetition - like family or social groups.
- research on use of animal icons and textile components in basic chest-furniture.
- associations after archaic significances in regional and specific use.
