Per Olaf Fjeld med bok om møbelserie

Per Olaf Fjeld og Emily Randall Fjeld har kommet ut med en bok om en egen møbelserie som omfatter 16 prototyper.

Boken heter "Hands on" og er publisert av Design Intelligence, Östberg Forlag USA.

Fra forlagets omtale:

"Armed with a meager set of hand tools and locally available pine, Per Olaf Fjeld and Emily Randall Fjeld set out to carve a tranquil niche for themselves. What they sought was respite from their successful and stressful architecture practice in Oslo, Norway. What they found was that a small basement workshop would lead them to deeper understandings of the relationship between economy, time, and materials, as well as greater insight into their own Nordic design heritage.

Over the course of years in their free time, Per Olaf and Emily constructed a collection of 16 unique pieces of furniture for their modest country home -- what began as a "rundown wooden house" inherited from Per Olaf's great grandfather. What they learned in the process filtered back into their design work as well as their roles as educators."
