Poorly Designed Objects
The Poorly Designed Objects series plays with the aesthetics of design, while providing absolutely no functionality. The series takes common objects that we interact with daily, and reduces them to their most base elements creating dialogue around function, utility, and the nature of designed objects, recontextualizing the object though stripping it of its use. Rocks, the first tools humans used, are the perfect template for reducing a designed object to its simplest form.
