Extremis, under the leadership of Dirk Wynants, is constantly
engaged in a innovative way with contemporary design. One can find the outdoor furniture in the best
design-shops all over the world. A company like this can only survive through innovation, trendsetting and by distinguishing itself of rivaling company's who's production capacities may be even stronger. If we think about the creation of new things within furniture design, it happens of course with a certain vision on the achievable goals. These goals are related to usefulness, innovation, interpretation of society and evolution, culture, which we could also find in every other form of cultural economy. Someone who's very driven by his profession is very likely to lose other things out of sight. This way he risks limitation, or moving in the wrong direction. This led to the question how somebody, trained in another trade, would cope with the goals that we impose upon ourselves. Klaus Verschuere, director, accepted the mission to expand the existing imagery with the aid of sounds. This incited him to team up with Piet Goddaer and Frank Deruytter. The new team's goal was to achieve a certain interpretation of our design philosophy within their disciplin. Piet and Frank turned out to be very motivated by this mission, so much that, what was originally ment to be a five minute track, turned out to be full CD. With the release of this album, this side-track starts to lead it's own life. If this, together with the things we create ourselves, could lead to the fact that we contribute to one of the positive steps that shape the form of the future, than we consider ourselves successfull. The public is the jury, we make the plea. |
