The first exploration in the Patch Series. Thinking back to a memory around a communal table, this project conceptualizes a possible future where the table on my family home’s front porch deteriorates and needs to be repaired. Following in my father’s footsteps, who repaired the rest of the front porch over the last 20 years, I look to combine my father’s restoration techniques with my own interest in repair using a darning technique.
