The goal of the Autumn Workshop is to create furnishings that have living energy built within them. Started in 2011 by designer Daniel Goers, the Brooklyn-based design and experimentation of Autumn Workshop is a way for artists to collaborate and share ideas.
With a focus on biophilia, the furnishings incorporate ecological and biological components into their designs. The majority of the pieces are created from scrap or repurposed materials. From the Terrarium Floor Lamp, which blends touch-dimming lamps with flora, to the scientific-looking Test Tube Vase Holders.
These beautifully crafted contemporary furnishings are the perfect way to experiment with home design. The eco-friendly nature of every Autumn Workshop piece will definitely liven up a space.
