100serie

100serie The design exhibition 100serie celebrates the process of shaping and manufacturing modern, mass-produced consumer goods.

The image of brand new, identical products – fresh off the assembly line – used to be a symbol of mankind’s scientific and technological advances. Modern production technology has shaped the world we live in, our surroundings and functional objects. Yet in our post-modernist world, the concept of mass production carries quite a few negative connotations. Fearing conformity and detachment from thei

r natural selves, some people look to artisanal, handcrafted alternatives for comfort. For designers, mass production requires rational thinking. Unlike the forgiving nature of handmade crafts, design for mass production demands flawless perfection in shape, functionality and use of materials. The design show 100serie celebrates identical conformity in products. The exhibition offers a look into the process of shaping and manufacturing modern, mass-produced consumer goods.
100serie is an invitational project, asking 5 different Norwegian design studios to contribute their unique interpretations of the task. The participating studios offer perspectives on the concept of mass production seen from different fields of design, such as furniture design, industrial design, graphic design and interaction design. In the end, each studio has come up with a functional and marketable product, which is made available for sale in a limited series of 100 numbered copies. The exhibition will show not only the finished products, but also insights and images from the design and manufacturing processes. Participating design studios: Eggs, Heydays, Gridy, Permafrost, Fimbul.
