设计二人芭芭拉·奥斯格比在设计博物馆的新展览“正在制作”的时机恰到好处。你不太可能没有注意到,人们对如何制造事物的兴趣正逐渐增强。现代设计更多的是关于过程,不仅是设计师的技能,而且是他们供应链的每一个阶段的技能。
爱德华·巴伯和杰伊·奥斯格比大多数人都更了解这一点。自从1996年他们的设计工作室成立以来,这对夫妇已经建立了一个折衷但从不炫耀的组合,与家具制造领域的许多大公司合作-Knoll,Vitra,B。
“正在制作”是工作室的第一次设计博物馆展览。杰伊·奥斯格比(Jay Osgerby)说,有些主题我们从未谈论过,甚至在我们最近的书中也是如此。
巴伯解释说:“我们想看看制造流程是如何运作的。像废物产品和中间阶段这样的东西是如何工作的-有时未完成的对象更神奇。这是一个关于生产的节目,也是关于物体的节目。
设计师们也热衷于强调这种方法的教育益处。
在伦敦地铁列车的巨大的前部,在几层的“铝”中形成了“S”形的过程,在制造过程中,类似于步进到生产线上,并在关键阶段移除一个物品,每个物体都贴上标签,以示出它在哪个阶段“暂停”。
另一些则更为抽象,有些则很吸引人,比如用来制作网球的切模的图形简单性-用菱形孔的整齐图案停顿在50%的位置-或者是纯硅块在被刮成晶片用的晶片之前,甚至是纯水晶,最终会成为施华洛世奇的精密光学透镜之一。
更现代的东西放在旁边,例如预先加工的铝坯,注定要变成一台MacBook或原始注射成型的B泡沫。
Barber说:“我们试着去做日常用品,但我们也想尽可能多地接触不同的生产过程。”工作室的自己的ToeToT椅子显示在注射塑料有机会填补模具,留下一个不可思议的一半完成的对象(“这是勇敢的Vitra让我们展示这一点,”奥斯格比缪斯。γ
“这就像一家珠宝店,”巴伯一边说,一边在最后一刻调整聚光灯或字幕。苏吉奇指出,巴伯·奥斯格比(Barber Osgerby)最终是“仍然关心事物的设计师”,展览传递出了一种对世界的惊奇感(这是由一系列迷人的过程视频支撑的)。
即使是最平淡无奇的物品也有一个隐藏的故事——金属棒,它在制造结束之前将叉子叉在原地,而搅拌器龙头总是以镜像对的方式生产,或者现代铝饮料可以从平板上冲出。而不是卷起。在制造“提供一个洞察力-尽管是精心策划的一个”到制造领域,希望有助于激励新一代的设计师拿起火炬。γ
'In The Making's' curatorial process was akin to stepping up to the production line and removing an item at a critical stage, with each object labelled to show what stage it was 'paused' at.

On show is a 'collection of curiosities,' according to Osgerby. Removed from the context of the machines or craftspeople that shape them, each exhibit - including some pieces by Barber Osgerby, such as the Tip Ton Chair (centre) - stands alone, spotlit on a plinth, offering us another way of seeing the strangely familiar.

在设计博物馆里,Barber Osgerby设计了一个新的展览“制作中”。你不可能忽视对事物如何产生的兴趣正在获得吸引力。设计的日子没有任何物理暗示。
