About Global Made Local
A concept in progress by Jeremy Walton 2008.
GlobalMade Local is a concept, or a working theory, that developed through a 50/50 collaboration between Jeremy Walton and the cabinetmakers at PP møbler for the SE 2008 Fifty Fifty exhibition. The ideology is still in progress, slowly.
If you like the idea of it, or would like to be a part of it, get in touch for further information.
What is GlobalMadeLocal?
GlobalMadeLocal is a global furniture collection that is made locally. It is a community of cabinetmakers (and designers) that share design knowledge to form a global collection of furniture pieces. The GlobalMadeLocal Collection stems from the collaboration of designers and cabinetmakers from all over the world. The final production of each piece is made locally to the customer who is commissioning the piece, irrespective of where the piece was originally developed.
About Jeremy Walton’s journey around the globe in 80 chairs.
Around the globe in 80 chairs by Jeremy Walton.
Start of a long slow journey.
Why do projects need to be completed instantly?
To develope 80 chairs across the globe following the GlobalMadeLocal ideology. Chair is just a term for furniture, they might not always be chairs.
80 pieces working flat out, could take about 8 years to complete, allowing for public holidays. But the chance of working flat out is not an option I have, so I will be lucky if I ever complete the journey, but who is in a rush to finish.

Open Heart Surgery
A Design service by Adam Broomberg and Jeremy Walton 1995.
Giving unsatisfied customers real service.
The service. The basics of the service, is to allow people to come to the shop and hand over their old , tiring house hold products.
These products would then be worked on and used to create new products. The customer has the choice of discussing their needs or taking pot luck in what the product will return as. Or they can part exchange with another product off the shelf.
