Reflect: Curated Objects from 16 US Studios

JOIN, a designer/maker collective that began in 2008, has expanded over the years since its incarnation in Seattle. Now, the group includes 40+ independent designers and makers from around the United States and they just presented a curated show featuring the work of 16 studios at this year’s Sight Unseen OFFSITE. Reflect exhibited one-of-a-kind designs that revolved around a common theme, size restriction, and single material use, all that “draw both parallels and contrasts within the them of Reflect.”
