N NO OR RM M MILANO GRAND PRIZE • ADVISOR: DOUG JACKSON • VELLUM FURNITURE DESIGN COMPETITION Norm is a chair on an adventure across time and space to collect as many uses as possible. Rather than being a singular formal embodiment, Norm is impressionable, bearing traces of all the uses it encounters. By equally representing the less obvious uses, they cannot be ignored or forgotten. As we engage with Norm’s various functions, we cannot avoid confrontation with the multiple realities of a chair. All of Norm’s functions are part of its identity, regardless of whether or not they are a part of our own understanding of a chair. Animation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKzkiCU5TP4
