BURNING DESIRE

BURNING DESIRE

You need to have that. That’s what you need to move, to create, to learn, to fail to succeed.

Action with a burning desire to change…

There`s always a sense of loss when you work for others, when the work that you do as an artist, as an architect or as a designer has not found the consistency and weight necessary so that it will let you create without the feeling of losing yourself in the work.

We needed to find a way of retaining our knowledge, a way which will let us create over and over again without feeling that sense of loss that happened in the early architectural projects.

Our first object created, a big oval chair composed of 13 sheets of wood (Now we do one in one quarter of a sheet), was very uncomfortable, very heavy, without any purpose as every chair has one defined by a posture as we found out after…

We learned. We realized that we needed to do wise objects without waste, as the beauty of an object not only resides in what you see as a final product but as all the practices that you practice in achieving that beauty.

We had to keep on going, mistake by mistake…trial and error, again and again. Suddenly, we realized that something happened on the way:  For the first time in our lives, we felt that something was changing, as it felt completely ours, we realized that the work produced, even if they were all exercises of fail and learn were the only way home!

So we took what we had and started the learning process, by the hand of our great friend and Engineer Estuardo De La Rosa, we jumped in the depths of digital fabrication to change the way we did things, to create things that were not created yet and to feel happy on the way…

To achieve precision, exactitude, high quality, new forms, new geometry`s
And above all, new ways of expression…
