Textile stove
|
The Soft Stove, by Dutch designers Van Eijk and Van der Lubbe, is a working wood-burning stove made of nonflammable textile. The furniture is one of the UNDERDOGMA series of products in which the designers question 11 dogmas in design.
The heater is now exhibited as part of the NEST: Design for the interior show at the Stedelijk Museum of Modern Art, Amsterdam. |

good to see designers experimenting, but isn't this just another example of playing with form and design conventions -- in other words, design for designers. what we really need are design experiments that go beyond formal games and acknowledge deep but usually ignored human needs, even if the results might not be so photogenic... the fireplace is pretty cool though...
