Study 82: THE WEIGHT OF A THOUSAND YEARS

What if the future of design isn’t defined by what disappears, but by what endures? In an industry currently obsessed with the "graceful death" of biodegradable materials (mycelium leathers and algae foams) Joe Doucet and Bulgarian studio Oublier have proposed a far more radical intervention: an object that never needs to die. This study, produced through the critical lens of the Objects of Affection Collection (OAC), deconstructs the Columns collection as a structural counter-argument to planned obsolescence.
