'From a Lost City' hybrid furniture07. Jul2011
"Inspired by the Shanty towns* around South America, from las ciudades perdidas in Mexico city to las favelas in Rio de Janeiro, FALC tries to preserve the improvisation’s essence, the grids absence, the disorder´s liberty.
In this case we are witnesses to a relationship between fabrics, wood sticks and boxes in different dimensions and materials (osb, bamboo and polycarbonate), to show us a different piece of furniture with a complete and efficient functionality.
We can use it for storage, as a work surface or as kitchen furniture. Accordingly, the drawers come in different sizes, for different necessities (office, kitchen, workshop, bedroom, living room, etc.)." - Christian Vivanco
Christian Vivanco is an industrial designer and Master in Product Design, founder of Christian Vivanco Studio and The Emotion Lab. For over 2 years he was senior designer at DesignCode and Hiroshi Tsunoda Design Studio.[...]
He has been characterized from the beginning of his career for striving to perfect the function and the use of daily objects; for his rejection of those that exceed the basics. Christian believes that objects exist not only to satisfy necessities, but also to create sparks within the soul of those who observe them, of those who use them and enjoy them.
