Hi All,
I'm excited to join the permies community! I helped Andrew and Matt with the video, writing, and miscellaneous Kickstarter things. It's been a blast working with them. The product initially drew me in because of all the interesting design configurations that were popping up in our coworking space. Its so simple, but you can do so many different things with it. The possibilities and creativity involved with making something both useful and accessible is very exciting. As I learned more about the product and the thinking behind it, I realized that Modos makes a lot of sense from an ecological perspective too. There is very little waste because of the rectilinear form, the flat pack nature of the product makes it easy to ship, and the wood is sustainably sourced from a well reputed vendor. In addition, it will last for more than one move! Andrew and Matt fully considered the environmental lifecycle of Modos and it shows in their end product.
Please let me know if you have any questions! Be it about Kickstarter, DIY furniture, or anything in general, I'm open ears.
Alex
