Collection: Object Rights

Reinventing classic objects, like a juicer, a coffee maker, or a lamp, while keeping their utility intact, is at the surface of the work that architect Deger Cengiz and graphic designer Jiwon Shin are doing in their New York-based studio. But dig deeper, and you’ll see that Object Rights explores the belief that all objects, no matter their status, are endowed with certain rights, such as the right to exist and the right to be recycled or reused. Every object is afforded these rights simply by being.
