Borrow Hammer & Nail - Enzo Mari - Furniture Designs

Inspired by the world-renowned radical designer, artist and critic Enzo Mari, this book is a tribute to his simple ideas that challenged the consumerism of the furniture industry.

Erik Eie Almqvist unpacks Mari’s manifesto of nostalgic longing for a pre-capitalist society where people built the furniture they needed themselves. Using very few tools - a hammer, nails and boards cut to standard dimensions - this book explores techniques and basic methods that will arm any armature carpenter with skills and inspiration for life.
