Independent Meeting With Thursday Late Group #2 - 16.03.15

Depression // Recession
Livable modernism, design lover, functionalism.

Povert vs prosperity, in home items, way of living, access to certain things, who would attend galleries and who would own certain items.

Use everything, upcycle, recycle, don't waste anything, MAKE DO AND MEND, the price is right game? Spot the Ikea, spot the bespoke design etc, what price would you guess certain items at.

1930s Slang: BULGE - 'having the advantage
                     CRUMB - 'loser by social standards'               name ideas?

'Do I care about design? I'm broke', 'Design Loves A Recession,'...'I don't care about design - I'm broke.'

Using Ikea as a metaphor for the times we're in.
