Co-financed by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage as part of the Center for the Development of Creative Industries’ own program: Development of Creative Sectors
The funding granted under the “Development of Creative Sectors” program allows not only Square Drop to showcase its specialized woodworking craftsmanship, but also provides support for the many creators collaborating with our studio. This includes local upholsterers and casters, photographers, designers, artists, graphic designers, and filmmakers. Such extensive collaboration shapes the final result of Polish design, which we will be presenting abroad and are currently sharing across our social media channels.
Touch, as a fundamental sense used to build safety, is directly related to relationships with others, the quality of materials used, and the finishing elements.” So writes Joanna Jurga in the book Szałas na hałas (A Hut Against the Noise). This same idea guided the creation of the Oddity collection. Our goal was to create objects for contemplation. The sculpted form, texture, and diversity of materials are intended to serve the human senses and influence the sensory perception of the objects. Natural materials and thoughtfully designed details strengthen the sense of security for people who are technologically overstimulated.
In the sense of “New Craft,” a handcrafted object bears the marks of social and cultural distinction. It distinguishes itself through expert, manual execution and the selection of local, high-quality materials—just as it was in the case of traditional craftsmanship.
