“Structure is not just a means to a solution; it’s also a principle and a passion”
Marcel Breuer
The focus of this course is to design a piece of furniture, with the possibility of completing a set responding to the same idea. Every piece should be self supportive and adapted to their function. Digital experiments as well as physical mockups will be a part of the design routine until achieving a final 1:1 prototype. The final design will be digitally fabricated scale 1:1
