Can people be encouraged to misbehave when confronted with furniture designed to invite people to break with models of normality?
´Para-site´ (workingtitle) is an attempt to challenge the conformities of seating and systems of conventions related to seating, in this case conventions around the act of sitting. The user is seduced into breaking with good social etiquette, into new rituals and to sit on the table.
Can a design object be regarded as an embodiment of potencial patterns of behaviour and ideology?
Can a design object draw attention to the boundaries of normal behaviour and thoughts by intervening in everyday situations?
I try to explore the potentially subversive possibillities of this parallel world of illicit pleasures related to the experience around objects, causing a kind of surreal conversation and breaking down the limits suggested to us by normal furniture.
