OASE / 121

OASE 121 

explores why architects think about, design and make furniture.

It combines theoretical research into the role of furniture within architecture, its practice and discourse, with detailed, focused studies of the work of architects who design furniture and for whom this area of work has become an important part of their oeuvre.

 

This issue of OASE explores the role of architects as public intellectuals and the ways in which they contribute to society beyond design.
