To a hammer, everything looks like a nail. LEG-LOVER is a bench that misuses found objects as legs, seeking the limits of what we aesthetically and conceptually accept as furniture legs. It holds a collection of objects with characteristics that hint at what their past life was, while simultaneously providing an afterlife for all of them as bench legs. LEG-LOVER is a tool for helping us see legs where previously they didn’t exist.
