BUSINESS FURNITURE

WARD AND ADRIAAN NEVER WORKED IN AN OFFICE. BE THAT AS IT MAY, THEY DO LIKE OFFICE FURNITURE DUE TO THE FACT THEY’RE NOT ONLY BORING BUT ALSO NEUTRAL. THIS KIND OF FURNITURE DOESN’T SMELL OF VINTAGE OR HAS AN AIR OF PRETENTIOUSNESS. TO WARD AND ADRIAAN THEY’RE BLANK CANVASSES. HOWEVER, THEY’RE FUNCTIONAL CANVASSES IN THEIR OWN WAY. WHAT STARTED OUT AS A HOMAGE TO THE SCRATCHED AND BLOTTED DOORS YOU FIND IN HIGH SCHOOL TOILETS, BARS AND OFFICES, WARD AND ADRIAAN SPEND A YEAR DRAWING ON VARIOUS KINDS OF OFFICE FURNITURE. RANGING FROM CLOSETS TO TABLES, EVERY OBJECT GOT A SPECIFIC PATTERN DESIGNED FOR THAT PARTICULAR PIECE AND THUS ELEVATING THEM TO A TOTALLY NEW DESIGN. AFTER THE DRAWING, ALL THE PIECES GOT A THICK LAYER OF CLEAR RESIN TO PRESERVE THE FRAGILE PATTERNS. THE END RESULT IS A AN EXERCISE IN PATIENCE AS WELL AS A DECLARATION OF LOVE TO THE ONE EMOTION THAT BINDS US ALL:
