Open Design: Basic Bench 2018

Open Design: Basic Bench 2018

The Basic Bench is a simple, yet sturdy, bench for your cabin or patio. You'll need a simple hand saw, a screwdriver and about 32 40mm screws. Sand down the seat to avoid splinters. Finish the piece with paint, oil or wax – at the very least treat the bottom 10cm of the legs for outdoor use. The construction will carry a lot – at least three large individuals will sit comfortably.   Download the building instructions here (PDF file 8mb): Basic_Bench_2018 Enjoy your summer!       Basic Bench 2018 by Hans…continue reading →

OBSTRUCT

OBSTRUCT

For godt halvandet år siden blev jeg opmærksom på byrummets sårbarhed overfor skruppelløse galninge, som benytter køretøjer som våben mod civile. Mange, mange skitser og adskillige ulykkelige begivenheder senere, står OBSTRUCT som resultat af denne opmærksomhed. OBSTRUCT er tegnet til alle de indbyggere i byområder, som ser deres byrum spoleret af identitetsløse betonblokke kastet med løs hånd ud over sårbare byrum. OBSTRUCT er skabt til hurtig opstilling ved trussel eller større events. OBSTRUCT kan benyttes til regulering af trafik og definition af byrum. OBSTRUCT er en designers forsøg på at bekæmpe galningene. One…continue reading →
