Where do chairs take eternal rest?

INSEDIAMENTO

Luca Weste

Chairs are part of our everyday life, there is not a single day in which we do not use them. Chairs are above all a product, and therefore a furnishing object, and as such an obsession for designers. Everyone aspires to design one, to the point of creating an endless collection. Some even lose their original function. They are the expression of the material culture of the era in which they are built and evolve, “in taste”, together with the human being. They accompany us from the moment we are born, they grow together with us. But like human life, theirs too has an end… But where does it end? At Hotel Bellavista.

A project made in the course

Mettere le mani nella terra

The impact of humankind’s anthropogenic activities, from soil erosion to ocean warming and the extinction of numerous species, has changed the global ecosystem, bringing the Earth into the Anthropocene era. Starting from this context, we proposed the idea of ​​“starting from the Earth”, in order to rethink the relationship between mankind and nature, to listen to the real world and experiences external to our design habits, to rethink our work tools.
