FLAME, Colombia, 2011
Flame-Workshop at the Escuela Taller de Bogotá.

CONCEPT
In September of 2011 the first Flame-Workshop took place at the Escuela Taller de Bogotá in Colombia. 15 students of the school were educated in the design and development of Flame furniture. The crashcours took one week and the result were six brilliant furniture.
The idea behind Flame is to develop customized furniture at a low price. Every piece is unique,  developed together with the client and build in a day. The furniture are made out of spruce with a rough-saw finish in standard sizes known from construction sites where it is used as posts and planks. For a smooth and water-resistent finish the furniture get burned at the end. Flame is an experiment in the field of low-tech mass customization.
