Present and Cor­rect is an online shop i came across which is bound to sat­isfy some of my sta­tion­ary fetishes.

“‘et dukkehjem’ is a hybrid art and design instal­la­tion by http://​www.​rootoftwo.com/ that uti­lizes sensor-​controlled dig­i­tal media embed­ded in custom designed pieces of fur­ni­ture. The start­ing point of this work is a re-​reading of Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” to explore user-​object rela­tion­ships. The piece seeks to ques­tion the func­tion, iden­tity and author­ity of objects. Objects are often anthro­po­mor­phized and in this case a stool, an arm­chair, a coffee table and a lamp each rep­re­sent a char­ac­ter from the play. By invit­ing the audi­ence to inter­act in var­i­ous ways with these domes­tic objects we hope to remove them from the taken for granted and create mul­ti­ple pos­si­ble read­ings of this work.”

“No nar­ra­tion, no expla­na­tion, just effu­sive 1950s film real music and exam­ple after delight­ful exam­ple of modern fur­ni­ture, archi­tec­ture, and indus­trial design.”
