About This Piece

Contemporary Design

In Home/Office, designer Alvaro Catal de Oc has been working on transforming an industrially produced object through the use of a traditional textile technique. Instead of having as a starting point a refused object which has lost its function and transforming it into some other product, the designers decided to work on a design classic; the Aluminum Chair by Charles and Ray Eames, designed in 1958, and applying to it an ornamentation full of connotations.
The starting point was not just analysing the object itself but also the company which manufactures it and the status it has achieved. Vitra's great achievement has been bringing the office to the home and taking the home to the office, and the designers wanted the project tomaterialize that concept through a subtle intervention that generated a strong visual impact. As a sign of respect to the chair, this intervention is non-aggressive and reversible - simply passing a needle through theholesof its standard woven net fabric and leaving its trace in the form of a Victorian petit point flower.Two icons clashing to bring to life the concept of the manufacturer of the chair.
The ornamentation of the chair is done stitch by stitch, completely by hand by a professional artisan, challenging preconceptions and accentuating the viewers' impression of just how much hand labor and how much industry is really applied to what is understood to be an industrial object. The Aluminum Chair is a global product, sold worldwide with minimum variations. TheHome/Office project offers the possibility of transforming the Aluminum Chair into a local product by local artisans.
This Victorian flower intervention on petit point arrives in eight different designs, illustrated in the last image

About the Creator

Alvaro Catalán de Ocón

Spanish designer Alvaro Catalán de Ocón was born in Madrid in 1975. He studied business management at the Complutense University of Madrid from 1995 to 1999—earning a Bachelor’s degree in Business and Administration—before going on to study product design at the Institute Europeo di Design in Milan (2000-2001) and Central St. Martins in London (2001-2004). He graduated from the latter with honors and a Bachelor’s degree in Product Design. (Notably, his thesis project, the Glow Brick, is still manufactured and distributed today by Suck UK.) In 2004, Catalán de Ocón launched his own studio in Barcelona. In 2009, he relocated to Madrid, where he also teaches (since 2009) students pursuing thesis projects in the Master Product Design Lab at the Instituto Europeo di Design.

Catalán de Ocón designs furniture, lighting, and accessories. He embraces clean, elemental aesthetics, and his work is often characterized by a sense of playfulness. He is best known for his PET Lamp (2012), an ongoing project that marries industrial design and traditional craft techniques. For each lamp, artisans in South America and beyond hand-weave palm tree fibers and discarded plastic bottles to create one-of-a-kind, colorful lamps. The project debuted at Galleria Rossana Orlandi in Milan in 2013, and has since gone on to earn the AD prize for Best Emerging Design Studio (2014); the CODESPA prize in the category of SME (small and medium enterprises, 2013); as well as nominations for the London Design Museum’s best product of the year (2013); the Delta Award (2014); and the German Design Award (2015).

Catalán de Ocón’s work has been presented at several institutions and events across the globe, including, but not limited to: the Double Game solo exhibition at Galeria Muñoz-Machado (Madrid, 2015), The FAB Mind exhibition at 21_21 Design Sight (Tokyo, 2014), Waterweavers exhibition (NY, Madrid, and Washington, 2014-2015), and at Galleria Rossana Orlandi (Milan, 2011-2014), ShowMe Gallery (Portugal, 2013), Mint (London, 2012), David Gill (Miami Art Basel, 2011), Galería OA (Madrid, 2010), and ICFF (New York, 2005). He has also curated a number of exhibitions, including the 2010 Finnish Design Week exhibition, Helsinki – Madrid Findesign, in Madrid, co-curated with Pedro Feduchi and Kari Korkman.
