Prostheses and Innesti is a collection of works initially created by construction workers of Kogan’s building sites and then reinterpreted with gentle interventions by the Brazilian architecture studio.

Born out of various necessities these pieces have been created with materials available at the sites.

Kogan and the architects at Studio MK27, mindful of the wealth of ingenuity displayed in these anonymously constructed works, modified and added elements to these pieces.

These interventions to the original objects evoke an effect of contrasts, prolong their lifespan and offer new meanings and materiality.

During the London Design Festival FUMI showed the entire collection produced to date which spans 4 years including brand new pieces never shown before, reclaimed from a building site of a recent project in Italy.

The Italian works are by Studio MK27, Manuela Verga and Paulo Boatti.
