How to design a living object? Most of our objects surrounding us, are kind of dead. They have been made from materials, we sourced without asking, and often without thinking. Many objects are even dead ends. They are not possible to ever circulate back into a natural way of decomposing. This chair is not dead, it lives. Plants are growing. The construction is so simple, it can be taken apart anytime. Let it live, use it, grow it, take care of it, and if you do not want to have it in your garden anymore: Take it apart and reuse some parts, compost some parts. No dead ends make a product live forever.
