Parsons & Charlesworth Details
Parsons & Charlesworth is a design studio founded in 2014 by Chicago-based British husband and wife team Tim Parsons and Jessica Charlesworth. After running independent practices they joined forces to pursue projects that explore the practical, rhetorical, poetic and speculative possibilities of object making. Working across a variety of media, they create objects, exhibits, texts and images that encourage reflection upon the current and future state of our design culture. Since forming Parsons & Charlesworth have designed objects for limited and serial production, created exhibits and installations, run workshops, designed publications, undertaken futures research and created speculative design projects. Employing a variety of strategies from incorporating or adapting found objects, experimenting with materials and processes and rethinking typologies, their object designs are driven by the desire to reveal phenomena or challenge conventional wisdom. In 2014, Parsons & Charlesworth presented at the inaugural CORE77 design conference in New York, and exhibited at The Istanbul Design Biennial. Other exhibitions include The Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, Wanted Design NYC and The London Design Festival. Clients include Areaware, The Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, The Chicago Cultural Center and Open Society Foundations. Their work has been featured in various press outlets including the Chicago Tribune, Forbes, Reuters, Icon, Metropolis, Disegno, Arbitare and The Architect Magazine. They are based in Chicago Illinois and often work back in the UK.
