COPY OF ORIFIGINAL DESIGNS
ORIGINALITY IS A VERY ADMIRED TALENT,
SO, WHY PEOPLE SPEND SO MUCH TIME TO COPY OTHER PEOPLE'S FURNITURE
INSTEAD OF TRYING TO BE ORIGINALS THEMSELVES?
 

Why some people do not use their imagination?
Why some people copy instead of their imagination?
Why some people buy the copy instead of the original?

How can we fight this new disease?

Do you want to see examples of people who do not use their brain?


We know this page does not look nice inside our website style. But what we show are really ugly things.

We believe that only if we point out what it is wrong we will learn to see the difference and to trust the originals.

The new rule-less society.

 We need the respect for the work of the creators.
It is not possible that the work of the designers copied.
If we let copies exist then why should someone design?
Respect for the work of other people should be important.
But it seems that, now, respect is not important in some countries.
