The Open Office is an internal Research Project I conducted for Vitra, looking at the change of the office today and what it could become in the future. I set out to answer pending questions with the central question being: do we indeed need a physical office when working together side by side is not absolutely mandatory?

Is it possible to design an object that is open to individual interpretation of use? 5KG is an experiment: Participatory design by making the user an actant in the design process. Inspired by Richards Sennett Theory of the open city I was curious if a design could define qualities instead of functions and use and therefore include the user as an active part of the design process. The project of 5KG is intended to be a case study if it is possible to include the user decide on function leaves to a wider range and a begin with a learning dialog with the user between the designer and the user.

In 2017 I received an ECAL partnered scholarship and was invited by the Hong Kong Design Institute for a teaching fellowship. Having been surrounded by an abundance of textile/electronic/metal/ markets lead the way for an inspirational environment to discover and especially to teach. Making use of one such market (a light market )I came across an idea of challenging the students not only to design a light around a specific bulb but to design the light source itself. As a way to motivate and quite honestly merely communicate with the students I decided to design my own light simultaneously as a tangible example they could relate back to even when words failed.
