Wood in Progress

"Shaking up industry's standards for the past two years — with their dazzling displays of experimental design research — the design collective Envisions has soundly validated the importance of a design’s preliminary phases. Ascending from the success of last year’s presentation in Milan, Envisions and the Spanish wood manufacturer Finsa vividly pick up where they left off, and carry their enriching collaboration to even greater heights.

The green light has been given to six of the previously created researches, which the designers have industrially tweaked and altered in the factories of Finsa in Spain. Being the second chapter of the creative love story, > wood in progress < shows us a conceptual and impressionistic application of the previously handcrafted materials and gives us insight in Finsa’s captivating manufacturing process. The display formulates the mission and vision of this collaboration clearly — showing that designers can’t live without the industry and the industry can’t progress without visionary designers. That quality is not a destination, but a direction and — most importantly — a process."
