Project 52 - 18/52: Go on working!

A long long time ago I subscribed to the reference French design magazine Intramuros. I believe that my decision to discontinue backs to an issue in which some star designers have participated to an operation for which they had created objects edited by 11 copies + 2 artist’s outputs…

Artist or designer, can’t they choose ?

Among them, Karim Rashid (well, I think he was this one) bucked (well, I think he didn’t do it himself) a birch to get out a stool… Was it possible to fall so low to speak about design ?

Moreover I could do the same and at this time I had a similar idea in my sketchbook, unpretentious but better-designed, so for my Project 52 I take the absurd to the ultimate !

Tomorrow is the Workers Day so it’s easy to speak about work… birch*… well, I cut a birch:

I hollowed a part and here is a stool:

either a bucket:

because it’s said that there is no bucket** birch*… silly ball***… er, a beautiful wolf jump ... midget under water ...

Some people could ask about how to close the bucket, but here is either a stool either a bucket, there is no closing so it can not be a stool and a bucket in the same time… Multifunctional doesn’t means simultaneous, you’re design or you’re not !!

* Well, I’m soooo sorry, poor english lecturers, birch is a tree named bouleau in french, a name that sounds exactly like boulot which is the french word for job. You know I’m in hollidays so please accept this french word joke without any link in your idioma.

**  Birch = bouleau that sounds like boulot = job. You have the first joke. Bucket = seau sounds like sot = silly. You have the second joke.

*** Well… you know, this is a Workers Day’s joke post, so here is a serious list of word jokes I can’t translate into english ones. You can read here the directly french to english translation, very absurd, yes, and if you’re a french reader you can see the originals here.
