GPS equipped chairs left on curb

These are real chairs that are equipped with real time GPS tracking systems and then left curb side for random people to pick up. And then they chased them down to interview them. Watch their interesting story…
When we opened our SoHo store in 2008, we became surrounded by the resourceful culture of “curb-mining”: the act of finding furniture and art on the street. Now that a year has passed, our friends at mono approached us with a way to conduct a curb-mining experiment of our own: What would happen if we left a bunch of Real Good Chairs all over New York, free for the take? Who will grab them? Where will they go? How will they get there? What will their new homes look like?
