For our ‘A Seat at the Table’ exhibit in 2025, we displayed 36 seats inside a luton van and travelled across London. The shelving fit out we used to display the seats was made from reclaimed pine radiata.

We wanted to continue the materials journey from exhibition infrastructure into stools for everyday use.

We are incredibly excited to be partnering with @storeprojects to use this reclaimed wood for a series of After School Club’s to design and build stools using this reclaimed wood from our exhibition.

Over the course of the club, students will design and make two stools, using wood repurposed from the shelving of Design Everything’s ‘A Seat at the Table’ travelling exhibition.

Working with simple tools and jigs, students will be introduced to practical joint construction and assembly to develop creative ideas into tested workable designs through hands-on making and prototyping.

This is a free opportunity for 15 state school students (age 14-18). The workshop will result in finished stools that will be the students to keep, with the opportunity to be part of a public exhibition at STORE STORE.

Workshops begin this week, for two weeks. We can’t wait to share with you the results of the workshops!
