Identitcal wooden boxes are stacked making both a place to sit and storage for books
The team recently attended a lecture by Inaki Abalos where he spoke about the designer's 'backpack of ideas'. Sometimes, we make ideas for a project but nothing happens, so we store them in our backpack to use another time. Since our early days as barista/designers at MAKE Coffee+STUFF in Winnipeg, we've been trying to make a furniture/staircase. The ambition is simply to simultaneously make somewhat of a landscape inside a shop while making use of that territory to store or display things. I guess we can't even really claim to have invented that idea either. But, staircases are great to support all sorts of public functions, so we're into it.
