A ‘hut’ festival, a crazy idea from Studio Boot & Co. gone astray, is being organised in the railway zone of Tilburg. When the plan still appeared to be completely impossible, it seemed safe enough to cautiously agree to participate. As they say, in for a penny, in for a pound… The hut festival is now a reality 15and we need to get cracking with our rather ‘unique’ budget. We are creating a restaurant for 70 persons and also need to take care of a number of other practical matters. Since everything is going to be expensive no matter what we do, I’ve decided to make tables, benches, a bar, a sewing studio and a few words from our huge stockpile of beams. The beams will be stacked and held together using metal tie-down straps. After the festival, we can take the steel-tie-down-strap-beam-furniture back home with us and sell it. Hopefully, this will keep the ‘damage’ to a minimum. The first stacks of wood have already been assembled and transformed into benches and tables in no time, all of it looking rough as a bear. The best ideas are often born out of necessity…
