The POOREX design studio, founded in 2004, is a one-person design-artistic activity. Its founder is Bartosz Mucha, an artist, 2D and 3D designer, pedagogue, singer and lyrics writer. The studio is oriented at designing and creating unique objects or their short series, occasionally produced and distributed. Studio POOREX functions mainly in the gallery circulation or in another form, cooperating with cultural institutions. The activity is based on three foundations: experiment, object and para architecture. The works are often accompanied by short video clips being an addition to the situations which are happening. An important element finalizing the individual series of objects are book publications. The experiences gained from working in the studio are an important element of didactic work on fields of study related to design, where the students are taught conceptual and experimental thinking about design. Recently, projects have been entering the region of craftsmanship and simple carpentry techniques.
