This speculative furniture design project imagines how we might inhabit a world just "nine meals from collapse," suspended between oversharing, geopolitical instability, and ecological emergency.
The work takes its name from a survivalist axiom: in the event of global catastrophe, human society would have the equivalent of nine meals before descending into irreversible collapse. The series translates this measure of time –nine frames, nine thresholds– into a collection of furniture pieces that function as emergency infrastructure, each one a unit of domestic resistance against a present defined by ecological instability, forced mobility, and systemic fragility.
Nine Frames From Collapse interrogates the aesthetic complacency of contemporary interior design, proposing a deliberate turn away from its excesses, away from premium materials, refined finishes, and the visual inflation of objects as status symbols.
This is design that refuses to perform luxury: the refusal is political.
