The New York - free-base design duo behindExtrapolation Factoryhosted a kill - up workshop yesterday good afternoon in our own pop - up space here — everything belt down up ! — at the GizmodoHome of the Futurein New York City , where a group of twenty or so participant put together visions of the domestic physical object of tomorrow .
The design process itself was awesome to watch and is unique to Elliott Montgomery and Chris Woebken , the organizational forces behind Extrapolation Factory . The accurate steps are dissimilar every time , but , for this instance , they set up a power grid of recent news stories chosen mostly from the science , with a weighty emphasis on ergonomics .
These are then fed into a sheet of parameters about the “ phantom resident ” of the Home of the Future .
Each house physician was specify by and through a speculative objective that would be afterward associated with them , but one devise by the workshop participant based on one of the news show items , image above .
ordinarily , the results of this sort of fictional target creation could be extended over the course of an full blueprint studio apartment , but everything had to be compressed into a 3 - time of day time slot at the Home of the Future .
The resulting objects were thus discuss , sketched , immobilise up as light narration , and then foregather from trimmed paper and vinyl group , resulting in a little gallery of domestic target of the near hereafter , temporarily put on presentation throughout the house .
These “ futuring workshops ” have take place everywhere from Storefront for Art and Architecture , where they designedjunk mail from the future , to a bodega where they stockpile the shelf with fake 99¢ products from an alternative tomorrow for New York City , as you may watch over in the be television .
They appear to be developing some sort of portable super - futuring outfit , as well , but I did n’t have a chance to ask them about it yesterday ; keep your eye out for a boxed in futuring shop pop up in a living room near you . [ Extrapolation Factory ]
The workshop was scat with aid from Natsuki Hayashi and Parsons Transdisciplinary Design student Stephanie Beattie , Selim Budeyri , Leah Cabrera Fischer , Dongin Shin , Lillian Tong , and Mollie West .
