USES TO COMPARE QUTIDIANLY THE OWN ENTHUSIASM OF YOUNG ARCHITECTS WITHIN THE DIFFICULTIES OF AFFIRMING IN A SATUROUS PANORAMA OF MANY PROPOSALS AND OBSTACLES.

FOR THIS REASON WE PROPOSED OURSELF AS A TARGET FOR THE SALONE DEL MOBILE 2019 TO OFFER THE POSSIBILITY TO A COLLECTIVITY OF EMERGING TALENTS TO PRESENT TO THE PUBLIC OF SALONE DEL MOBILE 2019 THEIR OWN SKILLS AND CAPABILITY THROUGH THE REALIZATIONS OF A PIECE OF FURNITURE.

F / A FakeAuthentic

_ Brief

WE WANTED TO SELECT 11 PARTICIPANTS. AN OPEN CALL HAVE BEEN LAUNCHED LOOKING FOR YOUNG ARCHITECTS UNDER 40.

WE HAVE BEEN VERY GLAD TO NOTICE THE SUCCESS OF OUR OPEN CALL SINCE WE RECEIVED A CONSISTENT NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS. WE DECIDED TO EXTEND THE INVITATION TO 15 SELECTED GROUPS OF ARCHITECT.

WE WILL HOST A COLECTIVE MADE BY FRAGMENTS OF CULTURE FROM 11 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES.

THE 15 SELECTED GROUP OF ARCHITECT WILL DESIGN AND PRODUCE A NEW PIECE OF FURNITURE INSPIRED BY THE THEME OF THE EXHIBITION F / A FakeAuthentic REFLECTING ON THE SINGULARITY / DUPLICITY OF THIS TOPIC.

TOPIC THAT WILL BE THE FIL-ROUGE BETWEEN PARTICIPANTS.

PARTICIPANTS WILL BE LET FREE TO GIVE THEIR INTERPRETATION OF F / A FakeAuthentic.

THERE WILL NOT BE ANY RESTRICTIONS ABOUT MATERIALS, COLOURS, CONSTRUCTION METHOD, WEIGHT.

SIZE. SIZE WILL BE THE ONLY LIMIT DUE TO PRACTICAL REASON. ACCORDING TO TYPOLOGIES.

21 EXHISTING TYPOLOGIES TO CHOOSE FROM.

A PIECE OF FURNITURE IS THE GOAL. ONE FOR EACH PARTICIPANT.

A PIECE OF FURNITURE THAT HAS TO BE BEAUTIFUL, BUT ALSO FUNCTIONAL AND PRAGMATIC, EASY TO SHIP AND EASY TO BE PLACED, VERSATILE AND OF COURSE STURDY.

YOUR PIECE OF FURNITURE WILL BE SHOWN AS PART OF THE COLLECTIVE EXHIBITION.

YOUR EXHIBITION.

OUR EXHIBITION.

WE DO IMAGINE F / A FakeAuthentic AS A LAUNCHPAD TO SHARE AN ENSEMBLE OF THINGS WE THINK ARE GOOD AND GENUINE.

ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.

F / A FakeAuthentic IT IS NOT ABOUT PERSONAL TASTE, IT IS MUCH MORE ABOUT COLLECTIVE, INTERESTING AMBIGUITY, CLEVER JOINTS, GOOD PROPORTIONS, INTRIGUING DISCORDANCES, PROPER MATERIALS.

AND MAYBE WE WILL END UP WITH AN UNEXPECTED AUTENTICITY IN SOMETHING FAKE.

AND VICEVERSA OF COURSE.
