"Deconstruction of a found object
Design students at the Institute of Product Design, Oslo and Akershus University College of Applied Sciences have transformed the IKEA stool NILS into new forms, ideas and functions.
The creative technique of deconstruction of a found object, made the premises for this project. The student task involved the demand of transforming one existing object into a new product.
The students were given the constraints that they could only use the material from the stool to execute the work, no additional material was allowed apart from joints like nails, screws, glue and so on.
The aim of such practice in product design is to influence towards new perspectives as being designers for the future and by extension peoples experience of artifacts."
