Aussie furniture stores commissioned creative agency Design By Toko to design a sculptural ‘Bonfire’ of furniture fakes. This installation was on display at Hill Street in Surry Hills as part of the recent Sydney Indesign. Do not fret – no real furniture were hurt in the process. Only the dirty, filthy, disgusting fakes. Hooray!

This installation consists of a group of Eames chairs attached to each other at the legs to create a sphere. In this utopian architecture, each element ensures and shares in solidarity with the others, the stability of the whole. This spiky structure forms a kind of immune system, a geometry configured in order to protect itself from the outside world.
