3rd Generation furniture
Jason Fletcher
The Third Generation Furniture project is an attempt to use the industrial process of modularisation to convert waste material and devalued objects into functional components for reuse. It seeks to contribute to the ongoing dialogue about the re-use of consumer goods through collaborative consumption. The project is born from the belief in collaborative and lateral design led and artisanal solutions that transform everyday wasted resource into useful products. It''s aim is intelligent re-use of materials, time and manufacturing methods to offer beautifully constructed and lasting products. Third Generation Furniture products are functionally modular and surfaced to highlight values in production. Each piece is designed or refurnished with standardized connective parts and sections allowing flexibility and variety in use and re-use over time.The Third Generation Furniture project is an attempt to use the industrial process of modularisation to convert waste material and devalued objects into functional components for reuse.
