Swords VS. Furniture chairslayer sword chair

Project in collaboration with Hugo Béhérégaray for the Dutch Design Week 2022

What’s better after a full week of design than being able to destroy some furniture? For the Dutch Design Week 2022, JB teamed up with Hugo to organise a game inspired from the popular piñata called Swords VS. Furniture. The goal is simple: people are invited to come, pick a weapon, cover their eyes and try to beat cardboard-made furniture in 30 seconds.

The furniture created by Hugo were filled with confettis, candys and business cards. On his side, JB made several medieval-inspired weapons with wood and tape. This was a fun way to gather with people about something very human: the enjoyment of destroying things.
