The REPAIRWARE Series by Samuel James Davies are a group of household appliances designed for easy maintenance. The brand and range of appliances aim to create a culture of repair amongst their users. This brings together not only the manufacturers knowledge of the product but also that of the user. For example, the Steam Iron is assembled in simple layers and is held together by two screws. The products are fully and easily dismantable. Designed to be taken apart and put together again intuitively, they actively make repairing simple.
Aesthetically they take queues from older products, hinting towards when products were built to last and trying reduce throwawayism. Whilst using a traditional set of materials to create a feeling of longevity, they do so with more contemporary forms allowing a fresh product that won’t easily circum to fashion. [via]
